Bill S-11

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
February 07, 2023
  • This bill is part of a process to align federal laws in Canada with the civil law of Quebec and to ensure that each language version of the laws takes into account both the common law and civil law. It amends 52 statutes, including those governing financial institutions like banks, credit associations, insurance companies, and trust companies. It also amends other Acts related to access to information, financial administration, interpretation, and official languages. The goal is to harmonize federal laws with the legal concepts, institutions, and terminology of Quebec civil law. The full text of the bill can be found on the Senate of Canada website.
