- None. Section 23 preserves an outstanding enforcement process on expiry: proceedings on an unexpired writ of execution may be continued but the writ may not be renewed.
- 'Local judgment' is defined in s 1 and covers judgments, orders and awards of the Supreme Court of Canada on appeal from a BC court, the BC Court of Appeal, the Supreme Court of BC, the Provincial Court of BC, and arbitrations to which the Arbitration Act applies, plus arbitral awards under the Foreign Arbitral Awards Act or the International Commercial Arbitration Act. Section 6(2) expressly disapplies the 2 year basic period to s 7 proceedings.
