International Trade
During question period on international trade, the Conservatives asked why Canada does not publish data on shipments blocked over forced-labour concerns, the way U.S. customs authorities do, and whether goods from a company the U.S. had blocked were being sold in Canadian stores. Jacob Mantle argued the government is not enforcing existing forced-labour law and said this could expose Canadian trade to new U.S. tariffs. Mona Fortier replied that Canada shares the goal of keeping forced-labour goods out of supply chains, pointed to the Fighting Against Forced Labour and Child Labour in Supply Chains Act passed in 2024, which requires businesses and government institutions to report on forced-labour risks, and said new legislation would further strengthen protections.Written by AI from the debate.
