Draft Proposed Permanent Changes To Enable Digital And Virtual Processes Under The Ministry Of Government And Consumer Services' Business Law And Condominium Statutes

The Ministry of Government and Consumer Services is seeking public and stakeholder feedback on draft proposed permanent changes to various business law statutes and the Condominium Act, 1998 to facilitate virtual processes for businesses and condominiums. These changes would help businesses adapt to new ways of doing business that are more virtual and allow for broader participation. This posting will close by 11:59 pm on January 21, 2022. The draft proposed amendments are intended to remove statutory barriers to certain corporations holding virtual and hybrid meetings, while still supporting the self-governance of corporations and aligning Ontario with other provinces. The ministry welcomes feedback on the proposed amendments, with responses due by January 21, 2022. Further information is available at Business Law Statutes, Condominium Act, Questions for Consideration, and Privacy Statement.
