Yes, creosote is banned in Canada for most uses due to its toxic and carcinogenic properties. The federal government has classified it as a prohibited substance under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act. However, it can still be used in specific applications, such as certain types of railway ties, under strict regulations. Overall, the use of creosote is highly restricted to protect public health and the environment.
