I remember consideration of making that specifically illegal.
Did Parliament ever get around to that?

Oh, it is - we are discussing alternate ways to get a coin.
For example, contributing Excellence to gov't:

If you're going to use a cream pie, it should be filled with steelies and be made of something not nearly as delicious as actual cream pie.
The whole point of a cream pie is that it's embarrassing, takes a minute to scrape off, but can't actually hurt anyone. And of course makes the nightly news. I admit I'm not up on my cream pie throwing etiquette, but I think throwing the aluminum pie plate as well is a no no.
There were a rash of them thrown during the last federal Liberal government, at least one of which the thrower having purchased the pie less than an hour before the event, honestly foolishly regretfully didn't wait long enough for it to thaw. The thrower and the MP were lucky it didn't hit the face and draw blood. Basically it was a two pound frozen rock.
I was referencing the Arab or Muslim act of great indignity by the throwing of footwear. Not necessarily any actual injury. The act is a greater shame than a jovial cream pie at our resident cream puff.
Now, is there a different or equal credit towards a GOC coin or other award for following either course of embarrassing or humiliating our fearful leader?
Ok you've had your fun, please keep it on topic and not derail this thread.
