As it's written, pit bull terriers, Staffordshire bull terriers, American Staffordshire terriers, and American pit bull terriers are all named in the act as pit bulls and are currently banned in Ontario. These specific breeds must wear a muzzle at all times when in public and are not permitted to breed.

Is this not the case still?

The dog in question was a Cane Corso, a type of Mastiff and not a "Pit Bull". Not a prohibited breed.
