Ontario's Bill 36 received Royal Assent on December 8, 2022. Bill 36 extends gas and fuel tax reductions until the end of 2023 and allows more on-location filming fees to qualify for the Ontario Production Services Tax Credit, among other measures announced in Ontario’s 2022 Fall Economic Update.

The corporate income tax measure to amend the Ontario Production Services Tax Credit in Bill 36 is considered enacted for U.S. GAAP purposes as of December 8, 2022 (the date the bill received Royal Assent). This measure was considered substantively enacted for IFRS and Accounting Standards for Private Enterprise (ASPE) purposes when Bill 36 received first reading on November 14, 2022 (as Ontario has a majority government).
