I can't speak to why the amendment reads as it does. I can say there are decision-making bodies empowered to issue orders that are not courts. The code will reflect this in certain instances.
There was an allusion to provincial legislation. There are various pieces of provincial legislation that will provide for some of the orders that would fit the description as in these enumerated paragraphs. I note that at the end of proposed paragraph (e), it says “or”, meaning that an order that does any one of these things would fall within the meaning of this definition.
Again, I can't say why, but I can say the effect of the word “court” would be to exclude those issuing bodies that are not courts.
