Canadian Guardrails for Generative AI – Code of Practice

The substantive principles framework underlying Canada's voluntary approach to generative AI governance. Defines six outcomes that developers and deployers of advanced generative AI systems should achieve: Safety, Fairness and Equity, Transparency, Human Oversight and Monitoring, Validity and Robustness, and Accountability. Developed as an interim measure ahead of binding regulation under AIDA; following AIDA's death on prorogation in January 2025, the code remains the primary federal framework for AI governance.
