What it does
AI plain-language summary of the official text.
Bill C-2, the Strong Borders Act, is a House Government Bill introduced in the 45th Parliament. It proposes measures related to the security of the Canada–United States border, along with other related security measures. The bill received first reading on June 3, 2025, and is currently at second reading in the House of Commons as of September 17, 2025.
Passage outlook
Likely to pass because it's a government bill, the government holds a majority.
Historically 25–30% of comparable federal bills became law (base rate 79%, n=266). Momentum has slowed, so that historical rate likely overstates its current odds.
A transparent, rule-based outlook from bill type, stage, and verified government standing — not a guaranteed prediction.
