I believe that applies within Canada. For the US, it's more flexible. i.e. they recommend that the animal be harnessed, but can't enforce it.

My wife & I occasionally train service animals (for PADS in Vancouver) and flew with our service dog a couple of times on AC. Throughout the training we often ran into fake service animals which makes life more difficult for almost everyone.
