The new update of the Canada’s Anti-Spam Law (CASL) was made effective from July 1, 2014. It is mainly enforced to keep in check all electronic mail distribution to Canadians and ensure relevancy with the modern standards. The CASL is a modern legislation indented to enforce a sound level of compliance and stricter penalties. Its outreach is beyond the traditional US CAN-SPAM Act making it more versatile and binding over many other aspects apart from the electronic mail platform. It is heavy handed on violators who do not comply with the rules.
