CORPORATE LAW
The law as it relates specif‌ically to the creation, governance, operation, and disestablishment
of corporations in Canada. This is a matter of mixed jurisdiction in that there is the federal
Canada Business Corporations Act and there are similar provincial statutes, meaning that a
corporation can be incorporated federally or provincially. This topic deals specif‌ically with
corporations and not other types of business organizations. Related topics: COMMERCIAL
LAW, PARTNERSHIPS.
COMPAGNIES
Domaine traditionnel, bien qu’en constante évolution, le droit des compagnies porte sur l’une
des principales formes d’organisation de l’entreprise. C’est une branche importante de droit
des AFFAIRES et un domaine de compétence concurrente entre le fédéral et le provincial. Cer-
taines compagnies font l’objet de réglementation particulière (voir : ASSURANCES, BANCAIRE
(DROIT)). L’émission d’actions est traitée sous VALEURS MOBILIÈRES. (Rappel : le nouveau
Code civil comprend un titre entièrement refondu sur la personne morale.)
