The proposed legislation would for the first time empower the federal government to order mandatory product recall when companies fail to act on legitimate safety concerns; force importers to take responsibility for the safety of goods they bring into Canada; and lead to increased inspections of imported goods and stricter product licensing when problems arise. Clement said the measures also could raise the current maximum fine for health product violations to as much as $1 million from the current $5,000.
Now, that'll not only have teeth, but will also bite hard those who run afoul.
I hope the actual enforcement will be strong and relentless.
Canada's government really ought to go after corrupt, greedy importers of risky stuff, particularly risky stuff from China. Like a pitbull!
If we're not going to ban crap made in China, at least we can take action to ensure that that Commie crap is at least safe!
Better yet, spend a bit more and buy stuff made in your own country or at least in the Free World, whenever possible!
