The Countering Foreign Interference Act is an act pending before the Parliament of Canada with the objective of countering foreign interference in Canadian democratic processes. The legislation consists of four parts, with the first three parts consisting of amendments to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service Act, the newly renamed Foreign Interference and Security of Information Act, and the Criminal Code, respectively. The fourth part enacts the Foreign Influence Transparency and Accountability Act, which would create a public registry of foreign agents.[1]
