Question  emissions exempt

HI everyone!
Somebody had a question that need some answers and wrote this:

"I have a few questions about "emissions exempt" and because I can never got a straight answer I thought I'd come here and ask all you fine folks.
I live in Ontario Canada and I own a 1980 Camaro Z/28.
I had a custom motor installed and I was told it was emissions exempt because the car was over 20 years old.
I did not put any emissions controls on it.
Now I have it built and I got pulled over last spring and was fined for not having the proper emissions equipment on it.
I guess what I am curious about is what is right and wrong?
Does "emissions exempt" mean exempt from emissions standards? or do I still have to have the equipment on there even thought according to the law it is "emissions exempt"?
According to what I've been told I can never put a supercharger on the car as the intake would have no place for an EGR Valve.
I'm looking for input and answer from both sides of the border. Cause I see in the magazines all these wicked
Hot Rods in the States that are wildly done up and supercharged and what not and you have special insurance for them and everything.
And it's legal to drive them on the street. But up here I'm sure to get pulled over and fined again as soon as my car comes out of storage.
I'm sorry if this seems like a bit of a ramble... but sometimes it's hard to get your thoughts out straight".
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks guys,
