Here is the ruling from our local Referee-In-Chief, and the VP of Training and Development for Football Canada.
"
Although it appears as misleading tactics, the only thing wrong was that the ball was not snapped appropriately. Once the ball is snapped the play was on. there was no tactic prior to the ball being snapped to mislead the opponents. If ball snapped legally the play would be okay."
