Yes, thank you. The bill amends the Consumer Reporting Act and the Prevention of and Remedies for Human Trafficking Act, 2017. The Consumer Reporting Act is amended to prohibit the inclusion in consumer reports of unfavourable information about a consumer that resulted from human trafficking. The Prevention of and Remedies for Human Trafficking Act, 2017, is amended to add a new part IV which provides for the concept of a coerced debt, that being a debt incurred under a credit facility while the debtor was subjected to human trafficking.

I’m also very proud to say that this bill is co-sponsored by MPP Glover, MPP Schreiner and MPP Scott. Thank you for the support.

MPP Wong-Tam moved first reading of the following bill:

Bill 42, An Act to establish the Gender Affirming Health Care Advisory Committee / Projet de loi 42, Loi créant le Comité consultatif des soins de santé axés sur l’affirmation de genre.
