This bill revives the corporation 2417633 Ontario Limited, restoring it to its legal position as it existed before its voluntary dissolution in September 2024.
This is a private bill that brings a corporation called 2417633 Ontario Limited back into existence. The corporation was dissolved voluntarily on September 4, 2024, under the Business Corporations Act. Sam Audia, who was a shareholder and director of the corporation at the time it was dissolved, applied for special legislation to revive it so he could continue operating the business under the corporation's name. When the bill received Royal Assent on June 2, 2026, the corporation was restored to the same legal position it had at the moment of its dissolution. This means the corporation regains all its property, rights, privileges, and franchises. However, it also becomes responsible again for all its liabilities, contracts, disabilities, and debts as they existed when it was dissolved. The bill also notes that any rights acquired by other persons after the dissolution remain protected—meaning third parties who gained rights during the time the corporation was dissolved keep those rights. The act came into force immediately upon receiving Royal Assent on June 2, 2026.
