Course Description

This webinar will focus on how Canadian insolvency legislation can be used effectively by individuals and businesses to mitigate financial loss and preserve value during these difficult and uncertain times including:
  • how to immediately stop creditors from any enforcement activities, including litigation;
  • how to immediately stop any/all CRA collection activities;
  • terminating contracts (including, for example, a commercial lease agreement) while mitigating the risk of financial repercussions to the business;
  • making “deals” with creditors collectively through a formal Proposal negotiation process; and,
  • when bankruptcy makes sense.


We will also discuss the steps individuals can take to preserve assets in the face of uncertainty.
