Reproduction of Federal Law Order
P.C. 1996-1995 19 December, 1996
Whereas it is of fundamental importance to a democratic society that its law be widely known and that its citizens have unimpeded access to that law;
And whereas the Government of Canada wishes to facilitate access to its law by licensing the reproduction of federal law without charge or permission;
Therefore His Excellency the Governor General in Council, on the recommendation of the Minister of Canadian Heritage, the Minister of Industry, the Minister of Public Works and Government Services, the Minister of Justice and the Treasury Board, hereby makes the annexed Reproduction of Federal Law Order.
