SUMMARY

This enactment amends the Criminal Code and designates several offences under the Immigration Act as proceeds of crime offences. The offences so designated concern persons who induce, encourage, aid or organize the unlawful entry of persons into Canada.

Under the Criminal Code, where an offender has been convicted of an enterprise crime offence and the court imposing sentence on the offender, on application of the Attorney General, is satisfied that any property is proceeds of crime and that the enterprise crime offence was committed in relation to that property, the court shall order that the property be forfeited to Her Majesty.
