The Construction Act of Ontario (Bill 142), which received Royal Assent on December 12, 2017, is coming into effect on July 1, 2018. This new legislation is truly state-of-the-art in terms of creating a responsive and modernized approach to certainty and timeliness of payment for construction work in the province.
