Summary

Bill 27 is a Quebec provincial government bill introduced by Minister of Labour Jean Boulet in the National Assembly. It proposes changes to the laws that regulate collective agreement decrees and the construction industry in Quebec. Collective agreement decrees are legally binding agreements that set minimum working conditions — such as wages and benefits — for workers in specific industries or regions. The bill was introduced on April 1, 2026, during the 43rd Legislature's 2nd Session. Because the full text of the bill is only available as a PDF and was not included in the provided content, the specific details of what changes are being proposed are not available for review. What is known is that it targets the legal framework governing how collective agreements are structured and enforced in Quebec's construction sector. The construction industry in Quebec operates under a unique system of province-wide collective bargaining, and changes to this system can affect tens of thousands of workers, contractors, and employers across the province.
