CANADIAN RULING:

All penalties applied from the LS are applied from the same spot as the previous play.

REPLY: That's what I think. It's simply a 0-yard penalty. But many disagree with me and want to place the ball at the basic spot (previous spot in this play). Who knows? And the Fed certainly isn't saying.
