This was the subject of litigation in Attorney General of Quebec v. Blaikie, in which the court said that a large and liberal reading ought to be given to that language, so that it includes all rulings that have, from the point of view of the person to whom it is being applied, the force of law, which such a ruling would have. That, as I say, applied to both the Quebec and federal governments.
I am positive that unless the Supreme Court wants to change its mind on this, this is unconstitutional.
