The law was deemed an illegal overreach into areas of provincial responsibility. "The constitutional frailties of the scheme's decision-making functions are exacerbated by its focus on regulating an overbroad range of impacts," said Chief Justice Wagner in the ruling.

The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled the vast majority of Bill #C69 is unconstitutional.
