“Airbags For Safety”

I am having my car safetied and the airbag light is on. the garage wants to scan it and diagnose the problem and will not sign the safety unless the light is off. I contacted the federal government and they said it is not neccessary for the light to be off for a safety at the federal level. All the articles I find for the ontario highway traffic act don't state anywhere that the light has to be off? Am I missing it somewhere? does the light have to be off?

Schedules 1 and 2 are what most cars fall under.

Check under your front seats for any electrical connectors. If you find any, disconnect them and then reconnect them firmly.

I don't see anywhere that airbags are part except for under schedule 1 section 1 subsection P where the vehicle is a physically-diabled passenger vehicle.
