A link to Canada is absolutely necessary, and just by virtue of being a Canadian citizen you are linked.
We're doing many good things, as Timea said, such as the national action plan that is being put in place right now to help victims of crime. But this particular bill will surely tighten up many things that are happening. Many organized crime organizations are taking care of business by trying to set up business outside our shores.
I don't think that link will be very hard to find. If you're a permanent resident or a Canadian citizen, you're the link.
