PARLIAMENT HAS PASSED THREE CONSERVATIVE PRIVATE MEMBERS BILLS
All three Bills have now made their way to the Senate where they will go through three votes and a study at a committee before receiving royal assent.
Bill C-208
Creating equality for business owners selling to family
Bill C-208, if passed in the Senate will allow small businesses owners to receive the same tax treatment when selling their operation to a family member as they would when selling to a third party.
If passed in the Senate, Bill C-210 would make signing up to be a donor much easier by allowing Canadians to sign up to be an organ and tissue donor on their annual tax form.
Compassionate care leave extension for more time to mourn
Bill C-220, if passed in the Senate, Compassionate Care leave will be extended up to three weeks beyond the death of a loved one, to give people the time they need to mourn.
