I can find zero reference that changes the existing law. The manufacturer recommended price is still only a recommendation not a requirement.
There is no way that they would ever legislate that the recommended price is fixed. If they do that does it also mean that the dealer can’t reduce the price to make deals? The law that stats the sticker price can’t be increased unless all advertising reflects that remains in place.
If this was a new law the internet would be full of info. There is not one single word.

Everybody needs to understand that the dealerships are not the manufacturer and can do what they want within their contracts.

This is the only legislation for car prices in Ontario. Nothing about using the recommended price.
