Aw, c'mon...

"aerobatic manoeuvre" - means a manoeuvre where a change in the attitude of an aircraft results in a bank angle greater than 60 degrees, an abnormal attitude or an abnormal acceleration not incidental to normal flying;

From the Transport Canada definitions

Any roll, like any other manuever defined as "aerobatic" as above, requires appropriate training, and flown in a suitably designed aircraft, to be accomplished WITH AN ADEQUATE MARGIN OF SAFETY
