What it does

AI plain-language summary of the official text.

Bill S-226, a Senate Public Bill introduced in the 45th Parliament, proposes to establish a Jury Duty Appreciation Week in Canada. The bill's purpose, as reflected in its long title, is to formally recognize the civic contribution of Canadians who serve as jurors. Having passed all three readings in the Senate, the bill is currently at second reading in the House of Commons. No specific dates for the proposed appreciation week are indicated in the available metadata.

Passage outlook

Unlikely to pass because it's a Senate public bill (which rarely passes), it's at an early stage.

Historically 10–30% of comparable federal bills became law (base rate 19%, n=103).

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