Ladies and gentlemen,
7+ years of work by the Unholy Trinity and here it is. There will be more to follow in the near future including an update to the Canada Gazette (due on March 6th) and a CANFORGEN to follow in the next few weeks. While the OiC is vague, the intention is quite clear.
SPREAD THE WORD
Cheers
Noneck
