Order Amending the Export Control List

Enabling Act

Description

抖淫视频 no longer requires permits for the export of goods listed under items 5102 (Pulpwood) and 5103 (Red Cedar) of the Export Control List (the List). Given that these provisions are no longer enforced, the amendment aims to remove the two items from the List. 

Potential impacts on Canadians, including businesses

The proposed regulations do not alter administrative costs or burden to businesses, nor do they create new regulatory requirements.

Regulations Amending and Repealing Certain Regulations Made Under the United Nations Act (Miscellaneous Program)

Enabling Act

Description

Canada's United Nations Act (UNA) enables the Canadian government to give effect to decisions passed by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC). If the UNSC determines that an act of aggression or a breach of peace has occurred, it may decide what measures member states shall take to restore or maintain international peace and security. These measures are generally economic and trade sanctions. Such a decision imposes a legal obligation on Canada as a UN member to introduce the required measures into domestic law. This is done by enacting regulations under the United Nations Act.

The objective of this initiative is to both implement the Standing Joint Committee for the Scrutiny of Regulations’ as well as the Department of Justice’s recommendations, and to lift Canada’s United Nations Act sanctions regime on Mali following the UNSC’s vote against the extension of the mandate of the 2374 Committee and the Panel of Experts.

Bank for International Settlements (“BIS”) Privileges and Immunities Order

Enabling Act

Description

The Bank for International Settlements (“BIS”) plans on opening an Innovation Hub in Toronto after the city won a bid in 2020, which was supported by the Minister of Finance. The Innovation Hub will require a Foreign Missions and International Organizations Act (FMIOA) Order providing privileges and immunities for its employees, who will receive quasi-diplomatic status.

Toronto’s Innovation Hub will examine new and innovative ways of addressing green finance, digital currencies and other innovations in financial services. One of its expected focus areas will be improving cyber security of financial market infrastructure to resist quantum computer attacks. Another will be developing standards for green finance, to support the transition to a more sustainable global economy. In so doing, it will promote Canada’s reputation as a leader in FinTech.

There are currently Innovation Hubs in Hong Kong, London, Stockholm, Singapore and Switzerland.

Potential impacts on Canadians, including businesses

The Innovation Hub will support the Government of Canada’s priority to strengthen the digital economy by disseminating research and developing technologies that can benefit the financial system. It will generate partnerships with Canada’s FinTech community.

Order Amending the Import Control List (ICL)

Enabling Act

Description

This amendment adds a new category of prohibited firearms to Item 91(1) of the Import Control List (ICL) to mirror a new technical category of prohibited firearms in the Criminal Code, as amended by former Bill C-21.

This amendment to the ICL provides the government with the appropriate tool to address imports of this new category of prohibited firearms at the border. This new definition is prospective in nature and will capture firearms that are not handguns, that discharge center-fire ammunition in a semi-automatic manner, were originally designed with a detachable cartridge magazine with a capacity of six cartridges or more, and designed and manufactured on or after December 15, 2023.

Potential impacts on Canadians, including businesses

As a result of this amendment to the ICL, only businesses that possess a valid prohibited firearms license for the legitimate uses outlined by the Firearms Act (e.g., businesses that import on behalf of police and military, licensed businesses, law enforcement, etc.) would be able to import these types of firearms as new versions are introduced, subject to the Firearms Act licensing conditions.

It is anticipated that the number of applicants seeking import permits for these firearms will be very low, and so the costs resulting from this amendment are expected to be minimal.

Consultations

Given that this coordinating amendment stems directly from a legislative provision under a recent amendment to the Criminal Code that was consulted and debated in Parliament, neither pre-publication nor further consultations will be undertaken. Moving directly to final publication allows for timelier implementation of this coordinating amendment.
