If you follow the document links you will find the following statement: "While Part IX of the CARs applies to all RPAS, members of the Model Aeronautics Association of Canada (MAAC) operating at MAAC fields and MAAC sanctioned events will be issued an exemption to certain provisions of the CARs. Under the Act, footnote 8 the Minister has the authority to issue exemptions to the CARs; the exemption will be issued to MAAC before the end of the coming into force of the Regulations. "
So, hopefully the situation will stay as it is now - MAAC members operating at MAAC fields/events, and following MAAC rules are fine. Fly in the local park or vacant lot and you could be in trouble.
