Coalition Welcomes Final Passage of Anti-Contraband Tobacco Legislation
The National Coalition Against Contraband Tobacco (NCACT) today welcomed final passage of Bill C-10, the Tackling Contraband Tobacco Act, landmark legislation that provides law enforcement officials across Canada with tools to make communities safer from organized crime. “We are very pleased to see this legislation become law. It increases the power of police to address contraband tobacco by making smuggling large volumes of illegal cigarettes a criminal offence,” said Gary Grant, a 39-year veteran of the Toronto Police Service and Chair of Toronto Crime Stoppers.
