The newly-signed Canada/United States/Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) on free trade provides greater property rights protections for foreign investors than currently exist for Canadians. Canadians should enjoy at least the same private property rights as foreigners who invest in Canada. I recently introduced legislation, Bill C-222, An Act to amend the federal Expropriation Act (protection of private […]
Upper Ottawa Valley – Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant recently introduced legislation, Bill C-222, to amend the federal Expropriation Act to allow for compensation to private property owners flooded by federal government policy PLAN 2014.
