Meetings

This page tells you what information you can find on our website explaining what Ontario’s Not-for-Profit Corporations Act (ONCA) says about meetings.

If you incorporated before ONCA was proclaimed on October 19, 2021, your bylaws or articles may not comply with the rules explained below. You have until October 18, 2024 to review, update, and file your governing documents with the Ontario government. Until then, the rules in your articles and bylaws continue to be valid. This is true as long they were valid before the ONCA took effect.
