Income Tax Act
Point of Order--Chair's Ruling
February 12, 2026
Senator Downe
[ - ]
Your Honour, I rise on a point of order. During Committee of the Whole, we’re to deal with the issue before us. The scope of Senator Cardozo’s question is outside of Bill C-19.
Senator Cardozo
With respect, and to respond to that, at the beginning, I asked the minister if he would consider including in this bill or in another measure the specific issue of the cost of living and affordability for young Canadians.
The Chair
[ - ]
Are there other senators who want to comment on this point of order?
The Chair
[ - ]
Honourable senators, in light of the comments, I understand the concerns expressed. But I believe that, given that we are studying the subject matter of the bill, I will invite Senator Cardozo and the minister to continue.
