There's nothing wrong with BC's provincial government lobbying the federal government to fix problems that fall under federal jurisdiction and affect BC. That is completely standard provincial government activity and there are many active examples of it in many domains. The federal government agreed with BC that this is a problem now; they dedicated more money to dealing with money laundering in the budget.

Unfortunately what the federal government is doing will have little true benefit as what we're lacking is on the enforcement and prosecutory sides. Its basically just a PR stunt rather than an effective measure. True effectiveness requires massive amounts of money given to our prosecution system's budget and an overhaul of our judicial and criminal legislation. What America is identifying aren't issues with our investigations there issues with our overall justice system which hinder prosecuting all crimes.
