The enactment makes it an offence to commit genocide, a crime
against humanity or a war crime. Consequential changes are also made
to Canada's extradition and mutual legal assistance legislation to enable
Canada to comply with its obligations to the International Criminal

existing under Canadian law will not bar extradition to the International
Criminal Court or to any international criminal tribunal established by
resolution of the Security Council of the United Nations.
