I looked it up. My guess of about a decade turned out to be just about
right on, off by five months ;-)  (Turns on red are prohibited in
Montréal, but legal elsewhere.)  The "new" law went
into effect 13 April 2003, following a one year pilot in 2001.  Here
is a July 2004 report on it:

Not surprisingly, the law also made it legal for bicyclists to
turn right on red, previously prohibited.
