Featured Asked Questions

My business isn’t making as much money as I had expected, and I have had to use my personal credit to cover expenses, like wages and supply costs. My personal debt seems to be growing faster than my business can pay me. What can I do? - Continued from last issue: If you have updated your financial records and find the business income isn’t enough to pay the debts, there are various restructuring options available. Sole-proprietorships are “personal debts” and have the same proposal or bankruptcy options as any individual debtor. An individual can continue to be self-employed while completing a proposal or bankruptcy. Limited companies can restructure through business planning, taking on shareholders with investment capital, or they can file a Proposal to creditors through a trustee. Limited companies can file bankruptcy, however, this is usually done only if there are realizable funds/assets to distribute to the creditors, or if it is realistic to sell the business.

Consumer bankruptcy is a legislative procedure under Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act ("the BIA")

  1. complemented by provisions of federal and provincial legislation
  2. that allows an insolvent person, who cannot pay his debts and liabilities, and who assigns himself or petitioned by the creditors into bankruptcy, to surrender his property to a trustee in bankruptcy for the purpose of distribution among creditors in accordance with legislative priority of distribution scheme; and upon bankrupt’s compliance with bankruptcy procedures
  3. allows a bankrupt to be discharged (excused) from paying all or part of his debts and liabilities. The legislation may be complemented by regulations and Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy directives (OSB Directive(s)) (the latter provide guidelines to the trustees in bankruptcy on various aspects of the BIA).
The bankruptcy procedure is under reform. Bill C-12 is a comprehensive insolvency reform package by Parliament to modernize the BIA and related acts. As of April 2008 the bill has received Royal assent but its legislative and regulatory amendments have not yet been proclaimed in force. The current status of Bill C-12 can be found at the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy website and Parliament's website.
