Effective January 1, 2003, receptacles located in kitchens and installed within 1m of a kitchen sink (along the wall) must be GFI protected.
Does anyone know more information about this? Is the receptacle ANY type of receptacle? If I were to install a receptacle < 1m from the sink for a fridge or a space saver microwave do they need to be GFI protected?

This must be a local ammendment for the city, or possibly the Province of Ontario.
It is not a requirement of the Canadian Electrical Code.

You're right, I didn't realize this was only for Ontario. I'm sorry if I confused anyone.
