Agreed. It's just wonky wording. Based on that link from Transportation Alberta you posted, I assume our understanding is correct in terms of screens and interaction.
Quote:
permitting the display screen of the following:
a GPS navigation system – as long as the system is affixed to the vehicle and programmed before you begin driving or the system is voice activated. You cannot hold the unit or manually enter information while driving
a collision avoidance system
a gauge, instrument, device or system that provides information about the vehicle’s systems or the vehicle’s location
a dispatch system for transporting passengers
a logistical transportation tracking system that tracks vehicle location, driver status or the delivery of goods for commercial purposes
an alcohol ignition interlock device

I would also assume that tinkering with embedded car displays and controls (ie: Radio, temperature etc.) is allowed as long as it's not affecting your driving.
But yeah, let's hope CPS is not silly in the way they enforce this.
