32kph in Canada (since the post references Toronto) for pedal-assist (level 1) e-bikes.
This makes even the limited / legal ones little fast, but not beyond what a human is capable of.
Unfortunately It’s very easy to de-limit the inexpensive ones or the DIY ones and there’s no checking. :/
At least here in Japan, it's definitely a non-zero chance of getting pulled over if you delimit it. Harder to catch, but people have been busted
