Bill Detail
An Act to amend the Textile Labelling Act and the Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act
This enactment amends the Textile Labelling Act to provide that Canadian flags that are at least 20 centimetres in width and 30 centimetres in length and that are sold, imported into Canada or advertised must have applied to them a label indicating their country of origin. It also amends the Consumer Packaging and Labelling Act to provide that the packaging of such flags must also contain a label indicating the flags’ country of origin.
This bill proposes to require that Canadian flags measuring at least 20 cm by 30 cm must clearly indicate their country of origin. This applies to both the flag itself and its packaging when sold, imported, or advertised in Canada. The goal is to ensure consumers know where the Canadian flags they purchase are made.
