Consolidation of articles of incorporation

This service is intended for any corporation governed by the Business Corporations Act that wishes to combine the articles of incorporation that it has filed, i.e. to consolidate into a single document the information contained in all of its articles of incorporation.

The corporation may make therein the changes aimed at standardizing the formulation and presentation and correcting obvious errors in respect of references, data input, transcription or other similar mistakes.

The articles of incorporation must indicate the corporation’s authorized share capital. By default, the authorized share capital will be deemed to comprise an unlimited number of no par value shares. If there is more than one category of shares, the articles of incorporation must indicate the rights and restrictions specific to each category.

To determine the fees applicable to an application for articles of consolidation, please consult the fee schedule.

The enterprise registrar will file in the enterprise register the articles of consolidation and the attendant certificate along with the documents accompanying them. A copy of the articles of incorporation and the certificate will be sent to the corporation or its representative. The articles of consolidation will replace the existing articles of incorporation of the corporation on the date and at the time, as the case may be, appearing on the certificate.
