The standard applied for any director election under the CBCA under these provisions would be that individual directors would be subject to election by all voting shareholders. Shareholders would have the capacity to be able to vote yea or nay on each director. If a director does not receive a majority of votes cast, that director would not be deemed elected.
There are provisions in place for failed elections—when, for instance, there's a lack of quorum or a lack of regional representation, as per the articles of the corporation. In all of those cases, there's a capacity for the board to be able to take appropriate action to allow business continuity. This act sets out the rules, and any corporation in Canada under the CBCA would be subject to them.
