## Resource

The House of Commons is wrapping up its summer session with a flurry of major legislation, including the controversial lawful access bill, new hate crime offenses, and a ban on AI-generated deepfakes. They also passed justice reforms on bail, recognized self-governance for the Sahtu Dene and Métis, and shifted military sexual offense jurisdiction to civilian courts. With the PM busy abroad, critics highlight his absence from Parliament — but with fall sessions looming, the real action is just getting started.
