CANADIAN RULING:
The ball is live on punts, although only onside K players may first touch without committing a Restraining Zone foul.
If K was offside, enforce the 15 yards from the B-1: Team B 1D/10 @ B-16.
If K was onside, the touching is legal and the play is dead because K has possession with their knees touching the ground. Team A 1D/G @ B-1.
