Canadian ELT requirements..

That thing is written in such bureaucratic mumbo-jumbo that if I didn't already have a pretty good idea what it meant, I'd be completely befuddled!

What didn't you understand?

Further to the recent insert with the Aviation Safety Letter, Transport Canada wishes to advise stakeholders that the current ELT regulation CARS 605.38 is still in effect with respect to the regulatory requirements for the carriage of a 121.5MHz ELT.

The original proposed effective date for the new regulation will be delayed pending publication in Canada Gazette part II. Therefore, until such time as the new regulation comes into effect, the requirements as currently stated in 605.38 are still in effect for all aircraft operating in Canadian airspace.
The proposed transition period for the new regulation will not take effect until the new regulation comes into effect.
 
Well, that's good news in any event for those of us who might visit Canada in the next year but aren't ready to spring for a new ELT.
