Foreign Influence Registry and Accountability Act
  • This bill is called the Foreign Influence Registry and Accountability Act. It aims to increase transparency and accountability in Canada's democratic process by addressing concerns about foreign interference in the government. The bill establishes a registry where individuals acting on behalf of a foreign government or organization must file a return if they undertake certain actions with public office holders. It also amends the Criminal Code to increase the sentence for intimidation if the offender acted on behalf of a foreign government. Anyone who files a return under this act is presumed to be acting on behalf of a foreign government, unless proven otherwise.
