In Canada's legal and political system, the authority to enact "legislation" (formal statutes or Acts) is strictly divided by the Canadian Constitution (specifically the Constitution Act, 1867) between two levels of government: the Federal government and the Provincial governments. The Federal government enacts legislation pertaining to matters of national interest (e.g., criminal law, telecommunications, national defense, copyright). The Provincial governments enact legislation pertaining to matters of regional interest (e.g., property and civil rights, healthcare, education, and the regulation of professions like engineering through Acts such as the EGPA). Municipal governments (cities, towns) donothave the constitutional authority to enact legislation. Instead, they are entirely "creatures of the province" and only possess delegated authority to pass "bylaws" (e.g., zoning rules, parking regulations, local building permits) under the strict boundaries set by provincial statutes. Therefore, only the provincial and federal levels of government possess the true constitutional power to enact legislation.
