Subsection 17.1(1) of clause 10 reads as follows:
17.1(1) No person shall operate or maintain a railway, or operate railway equipment on a railway, without a railway operating certificate.
Paragraph (2) states the following:
(2) Subsection (1) does not apply to a person exempted under paragraph 17.9(1)(c) or to a municipality or road authority that maintains a crossing work.
The Governor in Council is the one who could provide an order-in-council exemption.
The following would be added: "or to an urban transit authority." The reason is that the railway operating certificate is not mandatory for an urban transit authority.
