À titre de co-présidente du groupe multipartite parlementaire contre l’esclavage moderne et la traite des personnes, j’ai pressé le gouvernement fédéral d’établir des lignes directrices plus sévères pour la mise en œuvre de la loi S-211.
Les milliers de rapports publiés jusqu’à maintenant par les entreprises canadiennes ne permettent pas d’avoir une idée claire de leurs efforts réels pour lutter contre le travail forcé dans leurs chaînes d’approvisionnement.

As Co-Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group to End Modern Slavery and Human Trafficking, I urged the federal government to establish stronger guidelines for implementing Bill S-211. The thousands of reports published so far by Canadian companies do not provide a clear picture of their actual efforts to combat forced labour in their supply chains.

Canada's APPG to @EndSlaveryCA held a briefing & a press conference with @Allard_IJHR on April 14 to highlight how the federal government is failing to fully enforce our Supply Chains Act. Slavery still exists & Canadians want all to be free from exploitation.

February 22 is Canada's National Human Trafficking Awareness Day. Human trafficking often begins with trust or opportunity — not force. It can happen to anyone.

Human trafficking often starts with someone the victim knows and trusts. That’s why human trafficking can happen to anyone.

Some traffickers exploit people’s hopes for a better future. That’s why trafficking can happen to anyone.

There’s never been more slavery in the world than there is today, & the scale of it demands action, not silence. #humantrafficking #EndSlavery

[APPG to End Modern Slavery @EndSlaveryCA]

As Co-Chairs of the All-Party Parliamentary Group to End Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking, we recognize a hard truth: exploitation is not a distant issue. It is happening now, across supply chains,workplaces, and communities, including in Canada. #humantrafficking #EndSlavery

[Julie Miville-Dechêne @mivillej]

Nous avons eu le privilège de recevoir dans le salon du Président de la Chambre des Communes, la Rapporteuse spéciale des Nations Unies sur la violence contre les femmes et les filles, Reem Alsalem dénonce l’effacement des femmes dans l’espace public ainsi que la prostitution et la pornographie, qui réduisent les femmes et les filles à l’état de marchandises.
