Title 18 › Part PART II— - CRIMINAL PROCEDURE › Chapter CHAPTER 212A— - EXTRATERRITORIAL JURISDICTION OVER CERTAIN OFFENSES › § 3273
Makes it a crime for people sent to Canada by the Department of Homeland Security or the Department of Justice under a treaty, executive agreement, or bilateral memorandum to help with border security to do in Canada anything that would be a federal crime if done in the United States. If convicted, they face the same fines or jail time as the U.S. crime calls for. It covers three kinds of workers: (1) civilian employees, contractors (including subcontractors at any level), or employees of those contractors; (2) people who are in Canada because of that job; and (3) people who are not Canadian citizens or ordinary residents of Canada.
