Mr. Speaker, I would ask that it be passed on division, please.

What This Vote Is Really About

This vote is about a proposed law called Bill C-25. This law wants to make changes to how Canadian elections work. It also wants to rename some areas where people vote. Think of it like this: imagine your school is changing the rules for student council elections. Maybe they're making it easier for students to vote, or changing the names of the classrooms used for voting. That's what this law is trying to do for Canada's elections. Why should you care? Because these changes could affect how easy it is for people to vote and who gets elected. If it's easier for everyone to vote, then the people we elect will better represent what all Canadians want. This vote is a step in making those changes happen.

This decision was made by "passed without counting" — no individual MP votes were counted.
