43rd Parl. 1st Sess.
December 01, 2022
Right to Timely Mental Health and Addiction Care for Children and Youth Act, 2022
  • This is a bill called the Right to Timely Mental Health and Addiction Care for Children and Youth Act, 2022. It aims to prioritize mental health and addiction services for children and youth in Ontario. The bill states that early interventions are more effective in addressing health issues, so it guarantees access to these services within 30 days for individuals under 26 years old who reside in Ontario and have been deemed to require mental health or addiction services. The Minister of Health is responsible for ensuring this access. The bill also allows for the creation of regulations to define terms, prescribe required services, and establish a system to monitor compliance. The bill will come into effect once it receives Royal Assent.

Bill C-309

44th Parl. 1st Sess.
December 01, 2022
An Act to amend the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act and the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (public institutions)
  • Bill C-309 is a proposed law that would change the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act and the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act. The purpose of the bill is to exempt certain public institutions from these acts. Public institutions that receive government operating grants and are subject to federal or provincial policy directives and operating procedures related to governance, accountability, finance, and administration would be excluded from the application of these acts. This means that these public institutions would not have to follow the bankruptcy and insolvency rules that other companies and organizations are required to follow.
