Stablecoins meet the Department of Being Quite Specific.

Canada published draft Stablecoin Regulations for consultation on 24 October 2026. Proposed rules include one-to-one redemption in the reference currency, a three-business-day redemption deadline and a 1% fee ceiling, with liquidity-related exceptions. They also clarify restrictions on issuer-funded rewards for holding coins. These are proposals, not final regulations already in force.
