Parliamentary Committee Notes: CBSA’s Efforts to Enforce Sanctions Against Russia
Since the start of the invasion, CBSA risk-assessed over 1.4 million export declarations and referred 211 shipments for detention and examination.
These detentions resulted in over 198 enforcement actions, preventing the export of approximately $14 million worth of goods.
Approximately $860,000 of goods were seized by the CBSA due to suspected sanctions violations.
The CBSA works closely with national and international partners on a daily basis to identify, deter, prevent, and investigate efforts to ship restricted goods and technologies to Russia both directly and via third countries.
