What it does
A plain-language summary of the official text, written by AI.
Senate Public Bill S-235, titled the National Strategy to Combat Human Trafficking Act, proposes legislation respecting a national strategy to combat human trafficking in Canada. The bill was introduced in the Senate on September 25, 2025, passed second reading on May 26, 2026, and is currently under consideration in a Senate committee.
Chances of passing
Worked out from the bill's type, its stage and the government's verified standing; for a federal bill, its passage range sets the band. It is not a guarantee.
Unlikely to pass because it's a Senate public bill (which rarely passes) and it's at committee.
Adjusted for this bill's current pace: 10–25% (the unadjusted historical base rate for comparable federal bills is 19%). It has gone quiet at this stage; the adjustment for that delay still leaves the historical rate inside the range.
