Ontario Regulation 275/11 has been added to the above link.  See Section 34, Refrigeration and air conditioning systems mechanic.

34.  (1)  The scope of practice for the trade of refrigeration and air conditioning systems mechanic includes, with respect to any cooling system or heating-cooling combination system that is installed and used in a residential, industrial, commercial or institutional setting, the following:
   1.   Planning, preparing and laying out the system.
   2.   Installing and starting up the system and verifying the operation and function of the system.
   3.   Installing and connecting piping for the purpose of conveying all types of refrigerant used for both primary and secondary cooling.
   4.   Maintaining, servicing, repairing and replacing system components and accessories, including the electrical and electronic components of the system.
   5.   Servicing, testing, adjusting, commissioning and decommissioning the system.  O. Reg. 275/11, s. 34 (1).
   (2)  The scope of practice for the trade of refrigeration and air conditioning systems mechanic does not include work performed in the production of refrigeration and air conditioning systems.  O. Reg. 275/11, s. 34 (2).
   (3)  Nothing in this section authorizes a person who holds a certificate of qualification or who is otherwise authorized to work in the trade to perform any function or carry out any activities for which a certificate is required under the Technical Standards and Safety Act, 2000.  O. Reg. 275/11, s. 34 (3).

The OCOT has released a Residential Air Conditioning Systems Mechanic Apprenticeship Training Standard.  It seems to include the revoked Ontario Regulation 75/05.

Note: April 8, 2013 has been named by proclamation as the day on which paragraph 2 of section 103 of the Ontario College of Trades and Apprenticeship Act, 2009 comes into force

I'd really like to know where Section 103 is.

The Ontario College of Trades and Apprenticeship Act says Section 103 is omitted.

103.  OMITTED (AMENDS, REPEALS OR REVOKES OTHER LEGISLATION).  2009, c. 22, s. 103.
