The federal government says it will introduce a bill Friday aimed at strengthening Canada’s approach to blocking imports made with forced labour. Multiple outlets report that the proposed measures would change how Canada bars such goods from entering the country, with officials describing the step as a response to concerns raised by the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump. The U.S. administration is reportedly considering new tariffs directed at Canada and other countries tied to their forced-labour practices. Canadian officials say the bill is intended to address those issues and improve enforcement of existing restrictions. While details of the final bill are expected to be released when it is tabled, the reporting is consistent that the measure focuses on imports and seeks to ensure products linked to forced labour are kept out of Canada through updated policy or legal mechanisms. The announcement frames the legislation as part of broader international pressure and compliance efforts related to trade measures tied to forced labour. The government has not been reported to have announced specific timelines beyond tabling the bill Friday.
