That's not what supersede means.
There is no federal law about wood burning stoves because the constitution assigns environment to the provinces.
- dghlsakjg 3y agoIf environment is assigned to the provinces then what is the Canadian Environment Protection Act https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/canadian-environmental-protection-act-registry/general-information/overview.html https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services.... AFAICT it’s the federal laws about pollution.
