An Act to correct certain anomalies, inconsistencies, out-dated terminology and errors and to deal with other matters of a non-controversial and uncomplicated nature in the Statutes and Regulations of Canada and to repeal certain provisions that have expired, lapsed or otherwise ceased to have effect

Miscellaneous Statute Law Amendment Act. A periodic government 'housekeeping' bill that corrects minor errors, inconsistencies, outdated terminology, and obsolete references across federal statutes. Each amendment is reviewed by both the Standing Senate Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs and the Commons Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights, and removed if either committee objects. No substantive policy changes. Federal MSLAs are introduced roughly every five to seven years; the previous one was S-2 in 2017 (S.C. 2017, c. 26).
