Justice committee  The question was on the removal of clause 24.

Justice committee  Okay, I see.

Justice committee  Yes, that says—

Justice committee  The error was in the name.

Justice committee  No, we have it. The correct name in French of the corporation is “Loi sur la Corporation commerciale canadienne”. The way it was written in error was “Loi sur la Corporation canadienne commerciale”.

Justice committee  I have an answer all written out for that one. The word “insuffisant” is not logical in this context and should be replaced with “suffisant”. When you read the provision, it seems clear that the provision is addressing two scenarios: a first scenario in which the assets are not

Justice committee  We can contact the legal services and confirm whether there are any problems. I don't want to commit myself to saying that there were not any, because when you read it, it's clearly not logical. I don't know if it's ever been considered by a court or not, but they have the power

Justice committee  What is going on in that provision is the proposed amendment replaces “he” with “the Governor in Council”, so that a gender-neutral word is used. As for modernization, it replaces “pursuant to” with “under” for plain language drafting.

Justice committee  The proposed change would correct a cross-reference. Clause 9 of Bill C-3 was deleted at report stage, but the corresponding amendment was not made to clause 4. Then, clause 9 was reinstated at report stage. Or rather, when clause 9 was deleted, the corresponding amendment was m

Justice committee  That makes sense. The error occurred when the lead-in of the provision was amended, which previously mentioned the minister. The lead-in was amended, but not the subsequent paragraphs. In the French-language version, the word “ministre” is not repeated. Instead, the pronoun is u
