This Quebec bill restricts when the National Assembly can use the notwithstanding clause to override the Quebec Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms, limiting its use to situations of serious public peril or French/Indigenous language protection, and requires a two-thirds supermajority vote plus mandatory court opinions, ministerial reports, and public consultations before any override can pass.

This Quebec bill establishes a national air quality strategy and requires the government to adopt a five-year action plan aimed at improving air quality standards, increasing monitoring, and reducing health impacts from air pollutants across all regions of Quebec.
