Editor's note

Between the filing (December 21, 2009) and commencement (January 1, 2010) of O. Reg. 503/09, the e-Laws consolidation publishes an interim version of Table 8.6.2.2. that differs from the in-force version only in table layout (column width), with no change to in-force content. This map does not reproduce that presentation-only interim version.
