Legalizing weed, a middle-class tax cut, and more.
Canada's governor general delivered the Speech from the Throne on Friday afternoon, kicking off the new session of Parliament.
David Johnston laid out, in broad terms, the new Liberal government's plans.
The speech was short and mostly repeated Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's campaign promises.
Here are the key lines, and what they mean.

"...the Government will introduce legislation that will provide greater support for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault; that will get handguns and assault weapons off our streets; and that will legalize, regulate and restrict access to marijuana."
What it means: Legalize weed, stricter gun laws, and new laws to help victims of domestic/sexual assault.
"Among other measures, the Government will work co-operatively to implement recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada, will launch an inquiry into missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, and will work with First Nations so that every First Nations child receives a quality education."
What it means: Try to repair the relationship between the Canadian government and Indigenous peoples.
"Working together, the Government will continue to provide leadership as Canada works toward putting a price on carbon and reducing carbon pollution."
What it means: Make it expensive to pollute.
