On Tuesday, April 19, 2016 I will be chairing an OBA program entitled “The Forfeited Property of Dissolved Not-for-Profit Corporations:New Developments in the Law”. There will be 3 speakers from the Ontario government discussing upcoming changes.
The Forfeited Property of Dissolved Not-for-Profit Corporations:New Developments in the Law
Find out what happens when a charity or other not-for-profit corporation dissolves without having all assets dealt with. The new Forfeited Corporate Property Act, 2015 and the Escheats Act, 2015 and related changes to other statutes, including the Corporations Act, will come into force on December 10, 2016.
