Ontario Food Law

Wondering if anyone can shed some light on the laws surrounding a home cookie business in Ontaro - Toronto specifically. 

 

All I have come across is this link http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/ht...egs_900562_e.htm#BK2

 

I didn't see anything in there prohibiting a home bakery provided it meets all the building expectations. Yet all the Ontario cookiers I am aware of rent commercial kitchen space. I would love to turn my hobby into something more profitable but a commercial kitchen isn't in the cards for me right now - time commitments with my day job, no car to transport cookies/supplies, and the cost - some of the ones I looked at were $35/hour + and it takes me many, many hours to work on cookies.

 

Any input or further direction would be greatly appreciated!
