Overview of eSignature Legality in Canada
Canada has legally recognized eSignatures by province since 1998 with the Uniform Electronic Commerce Act (UECA). All Canadian provinces and territories other than Quebec comply with this act. The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) which passed in 2004 recognizes eSignatures on a federal level.
電子署名法
UECA and PIPEDA state that eSignatures are permissible and hold the same status as pen and paper signatures.
