Not exactly FOSS4G related but thought I would get answers from here. 

 

I recall something on the  Geomatics Profession Bill was in brewing the past
few months, including an appeal of sticking points identified by members in
the field. Can anyone update on this, was it adopted/ approved by
parliament, and what are the consequences regarding registration of one as a
GISc Practitioner or GISc Technologist?
