Bill PR9 revives the dissolved corporation 933834 Ontario Limited and restores it to its legal position as it existed before dissolution.

What It Means

Bill PR9 is a special private Act that brings back a dissolved Ontario corporation called 933834 Ontario Limited. Alida Eisses, who was a director and shareholder of the corporation, applied for this special legislation. The corporation was dissolved on March 28, 2022 under the Business Corporations Act. Ms. Eisses wants to revive the corporation to deal with property that was held in the corporation's name when it was dissolved. When the bill came into force (on March 2, 2023, when it received Royal Assent), the corporation was revived and restored to the same legal position it had before it was dissolved. This includes all its property, rights, privileges, and franchises, as well as all its liabilities, contracts, debts, and other obligations as they existed on the date it was dissolved. However, any rights that other people may have acquired after the corporation was dissolved are protected and are not affected by the revival.
