It has been accepted for inclusion in Osgoode Hall Law Journal by an authorized editor of Osgoode Digital Commons. An Empirical Investigation of Corporate Division 1 Proposals in the Toronto Bankruptcy Region Abstract In 1992, Canada's Parliament approved major amendments to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (BIA). The amendments included the adoption of a new Commercial Proposal regime for the reorganization of insolvent Canadian businesses with a view to enabling more enterprises to stay in business and avoid liquidation under the other provisions of the BIA. This article reports the results of an empirical study of all Division 1 corporate proposals filed in Toronto between November 1992 and December 1996 to determine how the new proposal regime works in practice. The uthora s' overall conclusion is that the 1992 amendments have achieved their goals, both procedurally and substantively. However, the authors also find that there is room for improvement and, in particular, see a need for a better screening procedure to discourage the initiation of unmeritorious cases, durable resolution.

    Middle-East Journal of Scientific Research 16 (12): 1632-1636, 2013 ISSN 1990-9233 © IDOSI Publications, 2013 DOI: 10.5829/idosi.mejsr.2013.16.12.12069 Legislative Recognition of the Public Creditor Access to the Partial Seizure of Property and the Future Revenues of the Russian Citizen-The Debtor, in Russia and Abroad Tatyana Mikhailovna Zhukova and Ksenya Sergeevna Kondratyeva Perm State National Research University, Perm, Russia Abstract: In the article, the variants are given of the Russian and the foreign regulation of the public creditor access to the partial seizure of the property and the future revenues of the debtor and the conclusion is made about the possibility and the necessity to introduce such a mechanism of relieving from debts in the Russian Federation. The authors performed a comparative analysis of the legislation in England, the USA, Canada and Russia. Based on the analysis the conclusion is made that modern systems have a tendency of applying the bankruptcy regulation systems depending on the size of the debt and the debtor’s income. The authors believe that in the bankruptcy system, it is necessary to research the procedures that prevent declaring bankrupt and in particular-the procedures that give the debtor an opportunity to get relieving from debts in accordance with the legislation, avoiding the full sale of the property of the private person. To improve the existing bankruptcy prevention system, it is proposed to legally define the debt plan as a procedure allowing the debtor to change the conditions of the debt repayment as compared to the bankruptcy procedures, at the expense of the future revenues during several years and possible partial sale of the property, guided by the arbitration manager and controlled by the arbitration court.

S.W. Jacobs, House of Commons Debates, 26 March 19231 I. INTRODUCTION The enactment of the Canadian Bankruptcy Act of 19192 created a great deal of optimism in the business and legal community. The new statute finally enabled Canada to join other civilized nations, like England and the United States, that embraced bankruptcy law as a permanent commercial statute.3 The idea of using a federal law to deal with debtors and creditors was new to the Canadian legal world in 1919. Although s. 91(21) of the Constitution Act, 1867 granted Parliament exclusive jurisdiction over “Bankruptcy and Insolvency” the Dominion largely abandoned4 this federal power by repealing the Professor, Western University, Faculty of Law.

Department of Li.’ The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date ‘ DE-6 (2/88) 11 ABSUACE The business reorganization systems available to fmancially-distressed businesses in Canada are evolving into a system similar to that employed in the United States under Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (Code). Business reorganizations have been an integral part of American commercial culture for almost a century. In Canada, business debtors may resort to the Companies’ Ceditoi A nwgemeni’ Act (CCAA) or the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (BIA), when seeking to reorganize their affairs. However, Canadian debtors use those systems sparingly. A primary objective of a business reorganization system is to balance the debtor’s rehabilitation efforts with the rights of creditors.
