Earlier this year, Professional Engineers Ontario were the first regulated profession to remove the requirement for Canadian experience from their registration criteria since the government took action and Professional Geoscientists Ontario recently did as well, potentially helping thousands of otherwise qualified professionals find jobs.
Once introduced, and if passed, this new legislation will mean Ontario would be the first in Canada to include provisions on Canadian experience in employment standards legislation.
There are over 900 programs offered across Ontario colleges that award an Ontario College Graduate Certificate and most are one-year programs.
At request of the Province, the OINP’s allocation from the federal government will more than double from 9,000 in 2021, to over 18,000 by 2025.

IMMIGRATION OPTIONS FOR VICTIMS OF FAMILY VIOLENCE

As of February 4, 2025, you can now get a temporary resident permit (TRP) for victims of family violence for at least 12 months. We’ll also be waiving fees not only for the initial TRP, but also for new TRPs, work permits, study permits and biometrics.
You will be protected by a special permit to stay in Canada. It’s called a temporary resident permit (TRP) for victims of family violence. It will give you temporary resident status in Canada so you can escape your situation and think about your next steps.
You can also get this permit for your children if they are in Canada. What you should know: In Canada, you do not have to testify against your abuser to get temporary resident status.
Your first TRP can be issued for at least 12 months. Depending on your situation, you might be able to apply for another TRP at the end of the first period. You don’t have to pay fees for your first TRP, or for a new TRP if you apply for another one. You also don’t have to pay biometrics fees. If you get a family violence TRP, you can get coverage for trauma counselling and health care benefits apply for a fee-exempt work permit or study permit
If someone is threatening or abusing you, get help right away. Please call 9–1–1 or your local police in an emergency.
Do you currently live in Canada and are waiting for a decision on your permanent resident application? Are you facing family violence from your spouse or common-law partner? Are you afraid to leave your abusive spouse or common-law partner for fear that you may lose your immigration status? Has your temporary status expired?

CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT

2026 New regulation requires explicit consumer CONSENT for RENEWALS and SUBSCRIPTION-BASED SERVICES, essentially treating them as new contracts.

Consumers must be able to cancel automatic renewals at any time, before or after the renewal date, without fees or penalties.
Restrictions on automatic renewals of, and amendments to, consumer agreements will have significant implications for suppliers, particularly those using a subscription sales model.

In Ontario failure to comply with the new automatic renewal obligations may void contractual renewal provisions or any purported automatic renewal of a consumer contract, or both. As a result, it will be critical for suppliers to assess the continued viability of their renewal frameworks.

The Accommodation Sector Registration of Guests Act, 2021 is an Ontario, Canada law that came into force January 1, 2026,

replacing older rules to combat human trafficking by expanding guest registration requirements for hotels, motels, resorts, and online platforms (like Airbnb) to collect detailed guest/reservation info, allowing police access to records (with court orders or urgently), and imposing stronger penalties for non-compliance, all while including privacy safeguards for data protection.

In Canada, nearly one-quarter (22–23%) of all police-reported human trafficking victims are children and youth under the age of 18.

In Canada and specifically within Ontario, 13 years old is recognized by law enforcement and the provincial government as the average age of recruitment into s*x trafficking.

Recent Reports: In 2024, police services across Canada reported 608 incidents of human trafficking,

Ontario caps 2026 rent increase at 2.1%
The 2.1 per cent cap on rent increases applies to approximately 1.4 million rental households covered by Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act, including tenants living in rented houses, apartments, basement units and condos. Exceptions include units first occupied after November 15, 2018, vacant properties, community housing, long-term care homes, and commercial rentals.
The phrase "Exceptions include units first occupied after November 15, 2018" refers to an exemption from Ontario's rent control guidelines, meaning landlords of new buildings, additions, and most basement apartments first occupied after this date can increase rent by any amount (with proper notice) because they aren't subject to the capped annual guideline, a rule intended to encourage new housing supply

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has announced that it will end the Remote Area Border Crossing (RABC) program.

The change, set to take effect in September 2026, will replace the permit-based system with a telephone reporting procedure, requiring travelers to check-in with Canadian authorities after entering the country, according to a press release.

As of September 14, 2026, all travellers entering Canada through remote areas of northern Ontario or from the Northwest Angle into southern Manitoba, must report to the CBSA at a port of entry or a designated telephone reporting site.

REVIEW YOUR AUTO INSURANCE POLICY: Before your renewal after July 2026, you must actively choose which optional benefits to add.
As of July 2026, medical, rehabilitation and attendant care benefits will remain mandatory, while all other accident benefits coverage will be optional allowing consumers more flexibility to choose coverage that fits their needs and budgets.
Ontario's Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS) is changing significantly on July 1, 2026, shifting to an "à la carte" model where most benefits become optional, moving from an opt-out to an opt-in system, while medical, rehabilitation, and attendant care remain mandatory to ensure essential care, allowing drivers to customize coverage for potentially lower premiums but requiring proactive selection of benefits like income replacement and caregiver support.

New carbon monoxide laws coming to Ontario

Starting Jan. 1, 2026, updates to the Ontario Fire Code will require additional CO alarms in all residential spaces with potential sources of the deadly gas.
Under the updated Ontario Fire Code:
• Carbon monoxide alarms must be installed on every storey of a dwelling unit.
• In multi-unit residential buildings, CO alarm requirements apply to individual units based on the presence of fuel-burning appliances or attached garages and may also apply to public corridors served by fuel-fired equipment.
• CO alarms may be hardwired, plug-in, or battery operated, as long as they meet recognized safety standards.
• Building owners and landlords are responsible for ensuring alarms are installed and maintained; residents and tenants must report any issues with alarms.
