  Yes, there are regulations in place for crypto exchanges in Canada. The main regulatory body overseeing crypto exchanges is the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC). Crypto exchanges are required to register with FINTRAC as money services businesses (MSBs) and comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know your customer (KYC) regulations. These regulations aim to prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit activities.
