How Canadians Govern Themselves › Government Structure
What is a bill in the Canadian legislative process?
- A provincial regulation
- A written complaint to a Member of Parliament
- A government budget proposal
- A proposal for a new law that must be passed by both the House of Commons and Senate and receive royal assent
Why this is the correct answer
Before any proposal can become law in Canada, it must go through a formal process as a bill. Both the House of Commons and the Senate must pass it, and it then requires royal assent to become an official Act of Parliament.
