Proposed subsection 269(1) is in the realm of torts. Proposed subsection 269(1.1) provides a limitation period in respect of prosecutions under other acts. For example, under the Fisheries Act, if there were an allegation that there had been an oil spill into a body of water that was protected, as is already in the act, there would be a limitation period in respect of prosecutions under the other act, but the exceptions carved out there in that section are, first of all, the NDA itself, so this doesn't create a limitation period in respect to the NDA, and also for civil prosecutions under the Geneva Conventions Act or the Crimes Against Humanity and War Crimes Act.
