The clean-up of dirty money has officially launched

The Liberal government announced a suite of fairly remarkable measures to tackle money laundering with its recent budget. These long-overdue initiatives will enhance the detection, policing, and prosecution of money laundering.

Criminals are washing as much as $133-billion in the country every year according to the Criminal Intelligence Service of Canada, the country’s organized crime intelligence unit. The agency recently reported strong links between money laundering and two priority drug markets: cocaine and methamphetamine, writes Mary-Jane Bennett.  Image courtesy of Pixabay
