PROTECTION FROM PERSONAL LIABILITY

Released on March 27, 2001

Saskatchewan joined Alberta and Ontario today as the first three provinces

in Canada to introduce legislation to provide for limited liability

partnerships.

Currently in Saskatchewan, most business is conducted through business

corporations. Owners and managers of a corporation are not personally

responsible for the ordinary debts of the corporation or for liabilities

incurred for defective products or services.

"The members of most professions, including dentists, optometrists,

chiropractors, lawyers and accountants currently practice in partnerships,

rather than as business corporations," Justice Minister Chris Axworthy

said. "Allowing these partnerships to register as limited liability

partnerships protects each partner from personal liability for the

obligations of the firm and provides consumers with information about the

partnership."

The proposed amendments to The Partnership Act are based on a model act

drafted by the Uniform Law Conference of Canada to provide consistency of

the law respecting limited liability partnerships in all provinces.
