The legislative process : from government policy to proclamation / Andre Barnes, Erin Virgint.: YM32-5/2019-31E-PDF

"How does government policy become law in Canada? The law-making process can be understood in terms of four distinct stages: the Cabinet stage; the parliamentary stage; the Royal Assent stage; and the coming-into-force stage. It should be noted that the legislative process for private members' bills and private bills differs from that for government bills. This paper discusses the legislative process for government bills only"--Introduction, page 1.
