No. The actual text states:

181. (1) In order to be a public accountant of a corporation, a person shall (a) be a member in good standing of an institute or association of accountants incorporated by or under an Act of the legislature of a province; (b) meet any qualifications under an enactment of a province for performing any duty that the person is required to perform under sections 189 to 192; and...be independent—

The requirements of clause 181 already include the need to meet any qualifications under an enactment of a province. Thus, we do not see the need to add anything.
