On March 30th, a motion for closure was proposed by Government House Leader Mark Holland for Bill C-11, the Online Streaming Act, and passed by a vote of 173-145. Both the Liberals and NDP voted in favor, while the Conservatives and Bloc Québécois opposed it. The closure effectively prevented further debate on the bill. The proposed legislation would authorize the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to regulate digital streaming platforms such as Netflix and YouTube, requiring them to contribute to the creation and promotion of Canadian content. The bill had passed the House in June 2022 and the Senate in early February, but the Senate had proposed a number of amendments that the Liberal government rejected. Debate on the matter had lasted for 66 hours in the House and 83 hours in the Senate. Liberal Health Minister Jean-Yves Duclos said that the closure was necessary to prevent further delays. Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre and MP Rachael Thomas spoke out against the motion and introduced a separate motion to scrap the bill entirely.
