What it does

AI plain-language summary of the official text.

Bill C-34, the Safe Social Media Act, is a House Government Bill introduced in the House of Commons on June 10, 2026. It seeks to enact two new pieces of legislation: the Digital Safety Act and the Digital Safety Commission of Canada Act, along with consequential amendments to existing laws. The bill aims to establish a regulatory framework for digital safety and create a dedicated federal commission to oversee it. As of the latest stage recorded, the bill is at second reading in the House of Commons.

Passage outlook

Likely to pass because it's a government bill, the government holds a majority.

Historically 75–85% of comparable federal bills became law (base rate 79%, n=266).

A transparent, rule-based outlook from bill type, stage, and verified government standing — not a guaranteed prediction.
