Gotchas
- The bill includes 'certain other measures' beyond the March 25, 2025 budget, but the full text is not provided here, so the exact scope of those additional measures is not specified in this summary.
- The bill came into force on December 12, 2025, but with exceptions — meaning some provisions may have different effective dates, potentially retroactive to the original budget announcement.
- Amendments were adopted during committee review, meaning the final law differs in some ways from the bill as originally introduced.
- This is a Quebec provincial bill, not a federal bill — it applies only within the province of Quebec and is not subject to federal parliamentary process.

Summary
Bill 6 is a Quebec provincial law that translates the fiscal (tax and financial) measures announced in the Quebec government's Budget Speech of March 25, 2025 into actual legislation. Budget speeches outline the government's financial plans, but those plans only become legally binding once a bill like this is passed by the National Assembly. The bill was sponsored by Eric Girard, Quebec's Minister of Finance, and also includes certain other unspecified fiscal measures beyond those directly announced in the budget. The bill went through all the standard stages in Quebec's National Assembly: introduction, adoption in principle, detailed clause-by-clause review by the Committee on Public Finance (where amendments were made), a report stage, and final passage — all between November and December 2025. It received royal assent on December 12, 2025, becoming chapter 35 of the 2025 Statutes of Quebec. This type of bill is a routine but important part of the budget process. It affects Quebec taxpayers, businesses, and public programs by making the government's announced tax changes and financial commitments legally enforceable.
