Canada’s Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, Minister of Public Safety Dominic Leblanc and Justice Minister Arif Virani announced the federal government was proposing several measures as part of a national action plan to help crack down on auto theft.

The plan includes legislative and regulatory changes, including proposed amendments to the Criminal Code, to institute tougher penalties for auto theft with ties to violence, organized crime and money laundering as well as new offences targeting the possession and distribution of devices that facilitate auto theft.

The plan also includes intelligence and information sharing enhancements between municipal, provincial, federal and international police and customs officials. And finally, the officials added that intervention improvements will allow more shipping containers to be examined, through increased capacity at the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and the integration of new targeting tools.

“You see a lot of us here today — a lot of federal ministers, a lot of elected officials — here on Victoria Day because we take this seriously,” Freeland said.
