Jury Duty Appreciation Week Bill
Third Reading
February 10, 2026
Honourable senators, with leave of the Senate, I move third reading of Bill S-226, An Act respecting Jury Duty Appreciation Week.
He said: Senator Poirier, thank you for that very compelling speech on Bill S-226. You are always to the point and accurate.
This bill, colleagues, is one that we have already studied in‑depth. It has obviously been tested. It was passed, went to committee, went to the other place and now it is before us again. All we’re doing is spinning our wheels when there is obvious consensus for this bill.
With leave, I move that we bypass spending any more time and go right to third reading if the chamber is amenable.
Is leave granted, honourable senators?
Is it your pleasure, honourable senators, to adopt the motion?
Hon. Senators: Agreed.
(Motion agreed to and bill read third time and passed.)
