Ok I was wrong, the bill wasn't passed in time before parliament broke for summer. So they will accept mail in ballots until the polls close, and to expect 3-5 days for them to count them under the current system.
Still I feel like the fix must be in or Trudeau wouldn't be calling for the election now.

That's because they expect many more mail-in ballots in this election than in prior elections. And they have to check the ID, if they voted in person, if everything is filled out and so on. With the old system in place this can take some time.
