In Canada, movie ratings are a provincial designation, so movie ratings would vary from province to province. In Ontario, movies are rated as follows:
G- All audiences (formerly F, or Family)
PG- Parental Guidance
14A- Persons under 14 must be accompanied by a guardian
18A- Persons under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian
Until a few years ago, 14A and 18A were both one rating, AA. However, many movies rated AA were actually too steamy and/or violent for 14-17 year olds, which was why it was split to 14A and 18A.
R- No one under 18 is admitted

I haven't seen a movie rated R here for a long time.
I seem to remember different desginations here.
I remember G (or F), PG, PG-13, AA, and then R. I think at one point R was like 18A, you couldn't enter the movie if you were under 18 without an adult. I could be wrong, but that's what I remember.
