ISED, Consultation on copyright in the age of generative AI, What we heard report (2025): no text and data mining exception (Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada, What We Heard Report (2025))
My search of the Copyright Act found no text and data mining exception. After a consultation with no consensus the government said only that it will consider options, so no exception is law or promised.

In the source's own words
“In light of this feedback, the government will consider options to bring more clarity into the marketplace, and examine how a balanced copyright approach to TDM activities could support the rights of creators while fostering Canadian innovation in an evolving global context.”
