Prepare for More Sanctions Against Russia

Canada's response to Russia's annexation of Crimea -- while placing it at the forefront of the international response -- doesn't amount to much.

So far, Canada has recalled its ambassador from Moscow, led the drive to expel Russia from the G8 and imposed economic sanctions banning Canadians from doing business with "designated persons," that is, Russians, Ukrainians and companies Canada has deemed complicit in the Kremlin's actions.

But when the government first imposed sanctions in March, it made clear that more restrictions would follow if Russia did not reverse course. With the crisis again escalating, Canadian companies had best be prepared if the government follows through.

The evolution of Canada's sanctions against Iran offers a template of how things might change. Under the Special Economic Measures Act (SEMA), Canada dramatically tightened its sanctions on Iran between 2010 and 2012. In addition to establishing a lengthy list of designated individuals and entities with which doing business is off limits, Canada now prohibits Canadians from engaging in almost all trade in goods with Iran, most financial services, many other services and all investment.
