Detailed Information
Canadian Consolidated Autonomous Sanctions List includes individuals and entities subject to sanctions under the Special Economic Measures Act (SEMA) and the Justice for Victims of Corrupt Foreign Officials Act (JVCFOA/Magnitsky Law). Canada can impose sanctions in response to grave breaches of international peace, gross human rights violations, or significant corruption by foreign officials. Currently, SEMA sanctions target 16 countries including Russia, Belarus, Iran, Myanmar, and Venezuela.
Sanctions measures can include freezing assets situated in Canada, prohibiting financial transactions, and restricting trade with target states. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) enforce these regulations. Canadian persons and entities must ensure they do not engage in prohibited dealings with listed individuals or organizations.
