2012-09-01

4. Where the amount of a supply or service contract is $100,000 or more, or where the amount of a supply or service subcontract to a supply or service contract is $100,000 or more, the contract or subcontract may not be entered into with a Québec supplier or subcontractor whose business employs more than 100 persons unless the supplier or subcontractor has made a commitment to implement an affirmative action program that complies with the Charter of human rights and freedoms (chapter C-12) and holds an attestation to that effect issued by the Minister responsible for Government Administration.

If such a contract or subcontract is to be entered into with a supplier or subcontractor outside Québec but within Canada whose business employs more than 100 persons, the supplier or subcontractor shall provide an attestation to the effect that the supplier or subcontractor has already made a commitment, if any, to implement an employment equity program of the province or territory concerned or to implement a federal employment equity program.

The Chief Electoral Officer shall award no other contract to a supplier or a subcontractor whose attestation has been revoked until such time as the supplier or subcontractor is issued a new attestation.
