62217.01Insolvency and restructuring proceedings in Canada involve complex legislation and common law rules and different insolvency regimes are often confused to be the same thing. When a company is unable to fulfill its obligations (financial or otherwise), we often hear the common parlance that such company is “bankrupt” or subject to “bankruptcy proceedings”.

This paper offers a high-level summary of the recovery practice in Canada. This paper was presented at LESA’s Debtor/Creditor Disputes webinar on May 11, 2021.
