Bill C-323

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
May 21, 2024
An Act to amend the Excise Tax Act (mental health services)
  • Bill C-323 is an amendment to the Excise Tax Act in Canada. It aims to exempt psychotherapy and mental health counseling services from the goods and services tax (GST). The bill recognizes that many Canadians have unmet mental health needs and that publicly funded services are often not easily accessible when needed. Canadians often have to pay for these services privately, but many do not have private coverage. The bill seeks to make mental health services more affordable and accessible by removing the GST on these services. The bill will come into effect six months after it receives royal assent.
