What was added

Added one genuinely new dataset source to docs/datasets-catalog.md:

• Consolidated Canadian Autonomous Sanctions List (Global Affairs Canada)

Section: Ownership, sanctions, and procurement.

Why this source matters

• Extends catalog sanctions coverage with an additional originating authority dataset (Canada), reducing over-reliance on single-jurisdiction sanction signals.
• Published in machine-readable form (XML), useful for reproducible designation-diff and entity-resolution workflows.
• Improves cross-border sanctions triangulation when paired with OFAC, EU, and OpenSanctions entries.

Practical use cases

1. Detecting designation changes under SEMA/JVCFOA frameworks.
2. Cross-jurisdiction sanctions overlap analysis (US/Canada/EU divergence and convergence).
3. Entity-level compliance and OSINT screening corroboration against Canadian authority records.
