An Act to amend the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act
Overall, the bill modestly aligns with Build Canada’s tenets by strengthening rule of law and self‑government through clear RCMP authority to enforce First Nation laws. Its economic impact is indirect but positive via reduced jurisdictional friction and improved investment certainty on First Nation lands.
No question period cards yet.
Primarily a law-enforcement/jurisdictional clarification with indirect economic effects; any contribution to national wealth is mediated through improved legal certainty.
Reduces bureaucratic ambiguity by clearly empowering RCMP to enforce First Nation laws, supporting self-government and a more predictable rule-of-law environment.
May modestly lower delays and compliance risk on First Nation lands, but it introduces no direct productivity or competitiveness measures.
No direct export provisions; any positive effect would be indirect via smoother project execution on First Nation lands.
Clear enforcement authority can reduce legal uncertainty and project risk for investors partnering with First Nations on land and resource projects.
Clarifies roles and can streamline enforcement across jurisdictions, potentially reducing duplication and service gaps; cost impact depends on implementation and training.
No tax policy changes.
A narrow, technical amendment that supports governance; it is not a transformational economic measure.
