The bill sets out the date that the legislation but not the regulations would come into force. In a bill such as this, is it possible to stipulate that the regulations on age verification must come into force before a specific year?
We worked on Bill C‑21, but the regulations that followed the passage of the old Bill C‑71 weren't even in force yet. It took several years for that to happen.
How can we make sure that the government works quickly on an age-verification system if this bill ultimately passes?
