The rules are essentially the same as they have been in Canada for some time now. The only difference really is they're now "regulations" instead of "guidelines". I can't remember if the limit for people and buildings was only 50m before, but whatever.
What annoys me more is the media's tone around all this stuff. They make it sound like flying a drone is some nefarious activity. It's just a few morons flying their drones close to planes that are giving the hobby a bad name for everyone. But the media (as usual) are doing a terrible job of portraying an objective overview of the situation. As a result, I suspect the general public will become more and more hostile to even responsible drone pilots. I plan to use my drone mainly in areas where there are very few people, in large part to avoid any potential conflicts.
