Regional tokenisation track · Canada

    Above OSFI. Above Lynx. Above the chain.

    Canadian tokenisation runs on two parallel obligations — banking-supervisory law for deposit-grade instruments, and securities law for asset-grade instruments. Cabier carries both on one substrate, with OSFI E-23 and B-10 already instrumented in production and CSA staff-notice tracking layered above.

    Regulator map
    OSFI

    B-10 third-party risk, E-23 model risk management, and ICT resilience guidance. Cabier's OSFI engine is in production.

    Bank of Canada

    Project Jasper and Project Agorá learnings carried forward; oversight of designated payment systems and FMI.

    CSA (Canadian Securities Administrators)

    Staff notices 21-329, 21-330, 51-364 and 81-336 on crypto-asset trading platforms, tokenised securities, and value-referenced crypto-assets.

    Payments Canada

    Lynx high-value and the Real-Time Rail interplay with bank-issued tokenised deposits and 24/7 reconciliation.

    FINTRAC

    PCMLTFA Travel Rule reporting, sanctions screening, and STR/LCTR obligations carried at the institutional layer.

    Bank Act (s.413)

    Deposit-taking characterisation, CDIC coverage attestation, and prudential treatment for bank-issued deposit tokens.

    Cohort treatment in Canada
    Cohort A · Tokenised securities (Canada)

    CSA staff-notice perimeter, IIROC / CIRO conduct obligations, and provincial securities-act application to tokenised instruments. Cabier carries asset-level controls (mint, burn, freeze, force transfer) and the institutional L5 substrate above them.

    Cohort B · Tokenised deposits (Canada)

    Bank-issued deposit liabilities on shared rails — Bank Act s.413 characterisation, CDIC coverage attestation, OSFI prudential treatment, and Lynx/RTR settlement-cadence reconciliation. Continuous Control Monitoring runs at 24/7 cadence.

    OSFI deposit-token control set

    B-10 and E-23 control library extended for tokenised-deposit issuance, custody, and surveillance. Versioned controls track CSA and OSFI guidance as it evolves through 2026–27.

    Δ2
    CDIC look-through and Bank Act s.413 characterisation

    Evidence-grade attestation that the token represents an insured deposit liability of a Canadian-chartered bank, with segregation, redemption, and resolution-planning artefacts captured continuously.

    Δ3
    Lynx / Real-Time Rail reconciliation

    Mint and burn events reconciled against Lynx and RTR settlement records in near-real time. Discrepancy alerts route to the institution's operations and risk functions with evidence attached.

    Δ4
    FINTRAC Travel Rule envelope (CTRE-CA)

    PCMLTFA-compliant originator/beneficiary envelope carried across Canadian and cross-border flows, mapped to FATF Recommendation 16 and IVMS101.

    Δ5
    CSA staff-notice tracker and securities-cohort overlay

    Live mapping of CSA staff notices to control obligations on the securities cohort. Provincial nuances (Ontario, Québec, BC, Alberta) carried explicitly where they diverge.

    Δ6
    OSFI supervisory interface

    Regulator-facing window scoped per supervisor: ORS lineage, control effectiveness grades, reconciliation evidence, and incident reports at the depth OSFI specifies.

    Cabier sits above the rail. The rail settles; the institution governs.
