Listen to the last episode:
Greg and Daniel unpack Bill C-2, the Strong Borders Act, and its sweeping implications for Canadian businesses. What sounds like dense legislative change actually touches everyday operations—like accepting cash or registering with FINTRAC.
Together they break down the real-world impact of proposed updates to Canada’s anti-money laundering framework. From universal enrollment to mandatory compliance agreements, Greg and Daniel highlight what’s likely to become law, what’s bound to cause controversy, and why this legislation might permanently change how businesses handle risk, privacy, and operational compliance. With clear examples and an eye toward both policy and people, they explore what this means for small brokerages, national banks, and everything in between.
Key Takeaways:
1. Learn how universal enrollment could change who can legally operate—and who gets shut down.
2. Understand why compliance templates may no longer protect you.
3. Discover how new penalties tied to gross global revenue could reshape business risk models.
4. Hear why banning anonymous accounts could affect everything from gift cards to domestic safety.
5. Find out why cash restrictions may ignite public backlash—and what it means for civil liberties.
