  • [Canada] New Forced Labor and Data Bills: What Traders Need to Know

    [Canada] New Forced Labor and Data Bills: What Traders Need to Know
    2026/06/29

    Host: Warrington Ellacott Guest(s): Yannick Trudel Published: June 29, 2026 Length: Approx. 21 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center

    Summary

    Canada is moving quickly on several legislative fronts that could reshape how importers, exporters, manufacturers, and distributors manage trade compliance. In this episode, Warrington Ellacott is joined by Yannick Trudel, Partner at McMillan LLP in Montreal, to unpack three bills recently tabled in Parliament: Bill C-35, Bill C-34, and Bill C-36.

    The main focus is Bill C-35, a proposed forced labor enforcement measure that could significantly expand the Canada Border Services Agency’s powers and shift the burden of proof onto importers and owners of goods. The discussion compares Canada’s approach with the U.S. UFLPA framework and highlights why supply chain documentation, supplier certifications, tariff classification consistency, and rapid response readiness are becoming more important than ever.

    The episode also touches on Canada’s emerging digital safety and consumer data privacy proposals, including how data localization and cross-border data flow rules may create new trade tensions under USMCA. For companies trading into Canada, the message is clear: review the bills, prepare documentation, and be ready for a more enforcement-driven environment.

    Main Topic / Discussion

    This episode explores Canada’s proposed shift from forced labor reporting obligations toward stronger border enforcement. Bill C-35 would introduce a more presumptive approach to forced labor risk, potentially relying on lists of countries, regions, entities, or commodities linked to forced labor. If enacted, the bill could require importers and owners to prove that goods were not produced with forced labor.

    Warrington and Yannick also discuss the broader compliance environment, including Canada’s existing S-211 forced labor reporting obligations, the role of CBSA, potential appeal limitations under the proposed bill, and what U.S. and Mexican traders should expect when doing business with Canadian partners.

    The conversation closes with a look at Bills C-34 and C-36, especially the potential trade implications of consumer data protection, digital safety rules, data sovereignty, and cross-border data flows.

    Key Takeaways

    • Bill C-35 could shift the burden of proof from CBSA to importers and owners of goods.

    • Importers may need stronger supplier documentation, certificates, and proof of supply chain due diligence.

    • Canada may develop forced labor risk lists based on countries, regions, companies, or commodities.

    • Consistent tariff classification and customs declarations across borders will become increasingly important.

    • Proposed appeal limitations could make CBSA enforcement decisions harder to challenge.

    • Bills C-34 and C-36 may create indirect trade implications for companies operating online or handling consumer data in Canada.

  • [Cindy's Version] Be the CHANGE in Trade

    [Cindy's Version] Be the CHANGE in Trade
    2026/06/26

    Host: Cindy Allen Published: June 26, 2026 Length: ~15 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center

    Summary

    This week on Simply Trade: Cindy's Version, Cindy Allen explores a week filled with meaningful developments across customs and trade—from new CAPE enhancements and changes to informal mail entries to the latest updates on Section 301, USMCA negotiations, and global supply chain strategy.

    But the heart of this episode isn't about tariffs—it's about change.

    Using Taylor Swift's Change as inspiration, Cindy reflects on how trade professionals can adapt and remain influential during a time when government decision-making has become increasingly centralized. She shares insights from the American Association of Exporters and Importers (AAEI) Conference and explains why relationships, industry engagement, and a unified voice have never been more important.

    This Week in Trade
    • Reconciliation entries become eligible for the CAPE filing process beginning June 29.
    • CBP announced several CAPE validation improvements designed to reduce filing errors and retransmissions.
    • CBP finalized changes to informal mail entry procedures following the end of de minimis treatment.
    • Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent indicated that pending Section 301 investigations may ultimately replace former IEEPA tariff collections.
    • Lawmakers continue raising concerns over declining U.S. manufacturing employment.
    • USMCA review discussions continue, with another one-year extension appearing increasingly likely.
    Main Topic / Discussion

    While several operational updates occurred this week, Cindy focuses on something much broader: how trade professionals can continue to influence policy during a period of significant governmental change.

    Drawing from conversations at the AAEI Conference and meetings on Capitol Hill, Cindy explains how the policymaking process has evolved. Traditionally, agencies worked closely with industry stakeholders before major trade decisions were implemented. Today, many decisions originate from a much smaller group within the administration, making it increasingly important for companies to strengthen relationships—not only with Congress, but also with agencies, trade associations, and government affairs professionals.

    Her message is simple: don't wait until a policy affects your business. Become involved now, build your network, and ensure your industry's voice is part of the conversation before decisions are made.

    Key Takeaways
    • CAPE continues to become more efficient through ongoing CBP enhancements.
    • Informal mail entry procedures continue evolving after the end of de minimis.
    • Section 301 investigations remain a major focus of the administration's trade agenda.
    • Supply chain resilience continues to shape U.S. trade policy.
    • USMCA negotiations are expected to continue beyond the current review period.
    • Trade professionals should actively participate in industry associations and government affairs efforts.
    • Relationships remain one of the most valuable tools in navigating today's trade environment.

  • How U.S. Export Controls Reach EU and Foreign Companies with Anna Goncz

    How U.S. Export Controls Reach EU and Foreign Companies with Anna Goncz
    2026/06/25
    Host: Andy Shiles, Lalo Solorzano Guest(s): Anna Goncz Published: June 25, 2026 Length: 33:46 Presented by: Global Training Center Summary In this episode of Simply Trade, Andy Shiles and Lalo Solorzano welcome Anna Goncz, founder of Export Compliance Academy, for a timely discussion on how U.S. export controls can reach far beyond U.S. borders. The conversation begins with a recent export control development involving access to advanced AI models and quickly expands into a broader look at foreign national access, re-exports, embedded U.S.-origin components, and the impact on EU and other non-U.S. companies. Anna explains why companies outside the United States cannot assume they are beyond the scope of U.S. regulations, especially when their products include U.S.-origin parts, are made with U.S. technology, or are accessed by foreign nationals. The episode also breaks down practical compliance steps using Anna’s CLEAR framework: Classification, Legislation, Evaluate, Act, and Regulate. This is a must-listen for trade compliance, legal, IT, engineering, procurement, and executive teams trying to understand today’s fast-moving export control environment. Main Topic / Discussion This episode focuses on the extraterritorial reach of U.S. export controls and how they can apply to EU and other foreign companies. Anna Goncz explains that U.S. export control regulations often follow the item, meaning a product manufactured outside the United States may still be subject to U.S. rules if it contains U.S.-origin components, is based on U.S. technology, or involves controlled access by foreign nationals. The discussion covers real-world scenarios such as embedded chips, AI model access, re-export licensing, entity list risks, and the importance of coordinating across legal, compliance, IT, HR, engineering, and supplier teams. Anna’s CLEAR Framework C – Classification L – Legislation E – Evaluate A – Act R – Regulate Anna emphasizes that classification is the starting point for every export control analysis. Without knowing what an item is and whether it is controlled, companies cannot properly determine licensing requirements, restrictions, or risk. Key Takeaways • U.S. export controls can apply to non-U.S. companies when products include U.S.-origin parts, software, or technology. • Foreign national access to controlled technology, even inside the United States, may be treated as an export. • EU companies may need both a local export license and a U.S. re-export license depending on the item, destination, customer, and technology involved. • Export compliance requires collaboration between compliance, legal, IT, HR, engineering, procurement, and executive leadership. • Classification is not the same as customs classification and should involve technical experts who understand the product’s performance and specifications. • Companies should conduct risk assessments, review customer and supplier relationships, document decisions, and stay agile as regulations change quickly.
