Minister Anand invites stakeholders to provide input on federal regulations to strengthen Canada's supply chains
OTTAWA, ON, Nov. 7, 2023 /CNW/ - Today, the Honourable Anita Anand, President of the Treasury Board, announced the launch of a public consultation on regulatory opportunities to improve the efficiency and resiliency of Canada's supply chains.
The consultation is open on the Let's Talk Federal Regulations platform until January 15, 2024, and seeks feedback on supply chain issues related to critical minerals, transportation, and border operations.
This consultation, part of the third round of the government's Targeted Regulatory Reviews, will gather feedback from Canadians, businesses, and stakeholders on opportunities to strengthen and modernize Canada's supply chains.
Through the first 2 rounds of Targeted Regulatory Reviews, departments developed Roadmaps, or action plans, and are implementing more than 100 distinct regulatory modernization initiatives related to high-growth sectors and themes. These concrete actions will accelerate growth, competition and innovation in the Canadian economy while continuing to uphold Canada's health, safety, security, and environmental objectives.
"Supply chain resiliency is critical for a strong economy. As we continue our work to strengthen Canada's supply chains, we know the best ideas and solutions come when we engage openly and broadly. This consultation will allow us to gather important feedback so we can take relevant, impactful action to ensure our supply chains across industries related to critical minerals, transportation, and border operations are resilient. As a result, these industries will better support our economic growth and access to goods and services."
