CASL: Clear As Mud
Overview
On Dec. 4, 2013, the Government of Canada published the final regulations to Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation along with the related Regulatory Impact Analysis Statement. After three years of waiting, most of CASL, including the sections dealing with commercial electronic messages, will finally come into force on July 14. Mercifully, those sections of the act relating to the installation of computer programs will only come into force on Jan. 15, 2015, and the coming into force of the new private right of action for non-compliance with CASL will only be implemented July 1, 2017.
