Industry Canada's revised regulations to Canada's anti-spam legislation "(CASL") have just been published. A copy of the regulations is available here:

It has been about a year and a half since Industry Canada first published its draft regulations to CASL. (The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission ("CRTC") published its first draft regulations to CASL at the same time as Industry Canada, which was in the summer of 2011; however, the CRTC registered its regulations in March 2012.)
There is a 30-day consultation period for the public to submit their comments to Industry Canada on the revised regulations (deadline: February 4, 2013). Organizations, it's time to start reviewing these revised regulations against your current practices and sending in your comments to the government if you have any concerns!
