Discharge of liability Payment under this section by the Corporation in respect of any deposit insured by deposit insurance discharges the Corporation from all liability to the extent of the amount of the payment made in respect of that deposit, and in no case is the Corporation under any obligation to see to the proper application in any way of the payment so made. Subrogation Where the Corporation makes a payment under this section in respect of any deposit with a member institution, the Corporation is subrogated, to the extent of the amount of the payment made, to all the rights and interests of the depositor and may maintain an action in respect of those rights and interests in the name of the depositor or in the name of the Corporation. Subrogation — returned payment In the case of a returned payment, at the expiry of one year from the applicable date referred to in subsection (2.9), the Corporation is subrogated, to the extent of the amount of the returned payment, to all the rights and interests of the depositor and may maintain an action in respect of those rights and interests in the name of the depositor or in the name of the Corporation. Priority If the Corporation is subrogated to the rights and interests of a depositor under subsection (4) or (4.01) in respect of any deposit with a member institution that is being wound up, the Corporation ranks, to the extent that the payment was made under subsection (2) or (2.1), including in the case of a returned payment, equally with the depositor in respect of their deposit; and to the extent that the payment includes any interest paid under subsection (2.4), equally with the depositor in respect of interest accruing and payable on their deposit after the date of the making of the winding-up order. No set-off or compensation Despite section 73 of the Winding-up and Restructuring Act, if the Corporation makes a payment under this section in respect of any deposit with a member institution, the law of set-off or compensation does not apply to a claim by the Corporation on the estate of the member institution in respect of that payment. Assignment Where the Corporation deems it advisable, it may withhold payment in respect of any deposit with a member institution until it has received an assignment in writing of all the rights and interests of the depositor in relation to the deposit. Time limitation for claims No action may be taken against the Corporation in respect of the obligation of the Corporation to make a payment in relation to a deposit held by a member institution that is being wound up unless the action is commenced within ten years after the date of the commencement of the winding-up. Interpretation In this section, commencement of the winding-up means the time a winding-up is deemed to commence pursuant to section 5 of the Winding-up and Restructuring Act. Payment to the Bank of Canada The Corporation shall pay to the Bank of Canada an amount equal to a returned payment within three months after the expiry of a 10-year period from the applicable date referred to in subsection 14(2.9), and payment to the Bank of Canada accordingly discharges the Corporation from all liability in respect of the returned payment. Notice The Corporation shall mail to each person to whom a returned payment remains payable, at the person’s address in so far as the address is known to the Corporation, a notice that the returned payment remains unpaid and that payment of an amount equal to the returned payment will be paid by the Corporation to the Bank of Canada. The notice must be sent at least six months before the date by which payment is to be made by the Corporation to the Bank of Canada and must also include the mailing address and websites where information can be obtained on how to claim the returned payment from the Corporation before payment is made by the Corporation to the Bank of Canada. Provision of information The Corporation shall, on making a payment under subsection (1), provide to the Bank of Canada the amount of the returned payment and, in so far as it is known to the Corporation, any information that the Bank of Canada determines is necessary to verify the identity of the depositor who is entitled to the returned payment, including the depositor’s name; the depositor’s address; information relating to the depositor’s pieces of identification; and information relating to another person’s authority to act on behalf of the depositor. Payment to claimant Subject to section 22 of the Bank of Canada Act, if payment has been made to the Bank of Canada under subsection (1) in respect of any returned payment, and if payment is demanded from the Bank of Canada by the person who, but for that subsection, would be entitled to receive the returned payment, the Bank of Canada is liable to pay an amount equal to the amount so paid to it to the claimant. Enforcing liability The liability of the Bank of Canada under subsection (4) may be enforced by action or other civil proceeding against the Bank of Canada in any court of competent jurisdiction. Sale of information to liquidator The Corporation may sell to the liquidator of a member institution appointed under the Winding-up and Restructuring Act any information that was gathered or produced at the expense of the Corporation, if that expense is not one that may be recovered by the Corporation from the member institution under subsection 14(2.8). Payment part of winding-up costs Any amount paid by the liquidator for that information is deemed for the purpose of section 94 of the Winding-up and Restructuring Act to be a cost incurred in the winding-up of the member institution. Premiums recoverable A premium assessed by the Corporation against a member institution for the purposes of this Act constitutes a debt owing to Her Majesty in right of Canada and the amount thereof together with any interest levied by the Corporation as an overdue charge is recoverable by action in any court of competent jurisdiction. [Repealed, R.S., 1985, c. 18 (3rd Supp.), s. 53] Insurance of federal institutions The Corporation shall, in the manner and to the extent provided in this Act and the by-laws, insure the deposits held by a federal institution in respect of which an order approving the commencement and carrying on of business has been made by the Superintendent unless that order prohibits the institution from accepting deposits in Canada; that order authorizes the institution to accept deposits in Canada solely in accordance with subsection 413(3) of the Bank Act, subsection 378.1(2) of the Cooperative Credit Associations Act or subsection 413(2) of the Trust and Loan Companies Act; the institution has been authorized under section 26.03 to accept deposits payable in Canada while no longer being a member institution; or the institution’s policy of deposit insurance has been terminated under section 31 or cancelled under section 33. Effect of amendment to order If the order approving the commencement and carrying on of business by a federal institution is at any time amended so as to not contain the prohibition or restriction referred to in paragraphs (1)(a) and (b), respectively, on the day on which the amendment takes effect, any authorization under section 26.03 that permits the institution to accept deposits payable in Canada while no longer being a member institution is revoked; on the day on which the amendment takes effect, any existing cancellation of the institution’s policy of deposit insurance under paragraph 33(1)(b) or (c) or subsection 33(2) is revoked; and as of the day on which the amendment takes effect, the Corporation shall insure the deposits held by the institution under subsection (1). Subsection (2) does not apply in respect of a federal institution whose policy of deposit insurance has been terminated under section 31 or cancelled under paragraph 33(1)(a). Notice to Corporation The Superintendent shall notify the Corporation of every application to incorporate a federal institution, or to continue a corporation as a federal institution, in respect of which the Superintendent is likely to make an order approving the commencement and carrying on of business that does not contain the prohibition or restriction referred to in paragraphs (1)(a) and (b), respectively;

and every application by a federal institution to have its order approving the commencement and carrying on of business amended so as to not contain the prohibition or restriction referred to in paragraphs (1)(a) and (b), respectively. Insurance of amalgamating institutions Despite section 17, the Corporation must, in the manner and to the extent provided in this Act and the by-laws, insure the deposits held by a federal credit union that was a local cooperative credit society prior to the issuance of the letters patent in respect of its continuation for the purposes of amalgamation. Insurance of provincial institutions On the application of a provincial institution, the Corporation may insure the deposits held by the institution in the manner and to the extent provided in this Act and the by-laws, if the Corporation approves the institution for deposit insurance; the institution is authorized by the province of its incorporation to apply for deposit insurance; the institution agrees, in carrying on its business, not to exercise powers substantially different from the powers exercisable by a company to which the Trust and Loan Companies Act applies; and the Corporation is satisfied that at all times the Corporation will have adequate access to information regarding the institution. Policy of deposit insurance Every member institution is deemed to have obtained a policy of deposit insurance on the day on which it became a member institution. Form of application for deposit insurance An application for deposit insurance shall be in the form, and accompanied by a fee of the amount and type, that may be prescribed by the by-laws. [Repealed, R.S., 1985, c. 18 (3rd Supp.), s. 55] Contents of policy The policy of deposit insurance shall consist of the provisions that may be prescribed by the by-laws. Records retained outside Canada Where a member institution that is authorized to do so under the by-laws retains at a place outside Canada records referred to in the policy of deposit insurance, including for the purpose of any examination by or on behalf of the Corporation, the Corporation may, in the case referred to in paragraph (a), and shall, in the case referred to in paragraph (b), direct the institution to maintain a copy of those records in Canada: if the Corporation is of the opinion that it does not have immediate, direct, complete and ongoing access to those records; or if the Corporation is advised by the Minister that the Minister is of the opinion that it is not in the national interest for the institution not to maintain a copy of those records in Canada. The Board may make by-laws respecting: what constitutes immediate, direct, complete and ongoing access, for the purpose of paragraph (3.1)(a); and the time within and manner in which a member institution is required to comply with a direction under subsection (3.1). Policies deemed to be amended If a by-law respecting the content of the policy of deposit insurance is amended, or revoked and replaced, every policy of deposit insurance is deemed to be amended or replaced accordingly. [Repealed, R.S., 1985, c. 18 (3rd Supp.), s. 56] Funds The Corporation shall maintain funds for the purpose of carrying out its objects. Assessment and collection of premiums The Corporation shall, for each premium year, assess and collect from each member institution an annual premium in an amount equal to the lesser of the annual premium for that member institution determined under the by-laws, and the maximum annual premium. By-laws re premiums The Board may make by-laws respecting the determination of annual premiums for member institutions and, without restricting the generality of the foregoing, may make by-laws for the establishment of a system of classifying member institutions in different categories; respecting the criteria or factors to be taken into account or procedures to be followed by the Corporation in determining the category in which a member institution is classified; and fixing the amount of, or providing for the manner of determining the amount of, the annual premium applicable to each category. When by-law not effective A by-law made under subsection (2) is not effective unless it has been approved in writing by the Minister. Maximum annual premium In this section, maximum annual premium means, in respect of a member institution, the greater of $5,000, and one third of one per cent, or such smaller proportion of one per cent as may be fixed in respect of the premium year by the Governor in Council, of an amount equal to the sum of so much of the deposits as are considered to be insured by the Corporation and deposited with the member institution as of April 30 in the immediately preceding premium year. Calculation of deposits For the purposes of this section, a member institution may use any method approved by the Corporation for that premium year to determine or estimate the aggregate amount of its deposits that are considered to be insured by the Corporation. Returns The premium payable by a member institution shall be based on returns to be certified by the institution and submitted in such form and at such time as the Corporation may require. Payable in instalments One half of the premium payable by a member institution shall be paid to the Corporation on or before July 15 in the premium year for which the premium is payable and the remainder shall be paid to the Corporation, without interest, on or before December 15 in that premium year. Calculation of first premium The premium payable by a member institution in respect of the premium year in which it becomes a member institution shall be the same proportion of the lesser of the annual premium for that member determined by by-law made under subsection 21(2) based on an amount equal to the sum of so much of the deposits as are considered to be insured by the Corporation and deposited with the member institution as of the end of the month in which it becomes a member institution, and the greater of one third of one per cent, or such smaller proportion of one per cent as may be fixed in respect of the premium year by the Governor in Council, of an amount equal to the sum of so much of the deposits as are considered to be insured by the Corporation and deposited with the member institution as of the end of the month in which it becomes a member institution, as the number of days in which any of the deposits with that member institution are insured by the Corporation in that premium year is of 365. Payment of first premium Despite subsection 22(2), the premium payable by a member institution under subsection (1) must be paid to the Corporation, without interest, within 30 days after the end of the month in which the member institution becomes a member institution. Where premiums payable All premiums payable shall be paid to the Corporation at its head office. No set-off on premium payment No member institution shall, without the prior agreement of the Corporation, reduce or extinguish a premium payment, interest or other payment to be made to the Corporation by reason of a set-off or claim by the member institution against the Corporation. Overdue charges Notwithstanding anything in sections 21 to 23, the Corporation may charge interest at a rate equal to the rate prescribed pursuant to subsection 161(1) of the Income Tax Act plus two per cent on the unpaid amount of any premium instalment not paid on or before the due date of that instalment. Premium surcharge Notwithstanding sections 21 to 25, where, in the opinion of the Corporation, a member institution is engaging in such practice as may be prescribed in the by-laws as warranting a premium surcharge, the Corporation, after consultation with the Superintendent or the provincial supervisor, as the case may be, and giving the member institution an opportunity to make written representations, may assess and collect from the member institution a premium surcharge in respect of the premium year or any part thereof. Amount of premium surcharge The amount of the premium surcharge that may be assessed against and collected from a member institution under subsection (1) in respect of any premium year shall be such amount as the Corporation may determine to be fair in the circumstances and in no case shall exceed an amount equal to one sixth of one per cent of so much of each deposit as is considered to be insured by the Corporation and deposited with the member institution as of April 30 in the immediately preceding premium year. Application of sections 21 to 25 The provisions of sections 21 to 25 that are not inconsistent with subsections (1) and (2) apply, with such modifications as the circumstances require, in respect of any premium surcharge assessed under subsection (1). Non-application to special premium Section 21, subsection 22(2), section 23 and subsection 37(5) do not apply to a special premium. By-laws — special premium In respect of each order made under subsection 7.1(1) or each direction given under subsection 11.1(1), the Board may make by-laws respecting the recovery from member institutions or any class of member institutions of the loss referred to in section 7.3 or 11.3, as the case may be, including by-laws fixing the special premium payable by member institutions or any class of member institutions or providing for the manner of fixing the special premium; establishing a system of classifying member institutions in different classes; establishing the criteria or factors to be taken into account or procedures to be followed by the Corporation in determining the class in which a member institution is classified; or respecting the time and manner in which a special premium shall be paid. A by-law made under subsection (1) is not effective unless it has been approved in writing by the Minister. For the purposes of sections 21 to 25.3, the deposits that are considered to be insured by the Corporation include the total amount of all deposits held in accounts that are identified as professional trustee accounts in accordance with section 9 of the schedule. [Repealed, 2018, c. 27, s. 164] [Repealed, 1996, c. 6, s. 32] Subject to subsections (2) and (3), for the purposes of sections 26.02 to 26.06, deposit has the meaning that would be given to it by the schedule, for the purposes of deposit insurance, if the schedule were read without reference to subsections 2(2), (5) and (6) of the schedule. For the purposes of subparagraph 26.03(1)(c)(iii) and paragraph 26.03(1)(d), deposit has the meaning that would be given to it by the schedule, for the purposes of deposit insurance, but does not include deposits not payable in Canada. For the purposes of paragraph 26.03(1)(b) and subsection 26.03(2), deposit has the meaning that would be given to it by the schedule, for the purposes of deposit insurance, if the schedule were read without reference to subsections 2(2), (5) and (6) of the schedule, but does not include deposits prescribed by the by-laws. The Board may make by-laws prescribing the deposits referred to in subsection (3); and prescribing terms and conditions with respect to the acceptance of those deposits. Application If a federal member institution intends to accept deposits payable in Canada while no longer being a member institution, it must apply to the Corporation for an authorization to do so. The application must be in a form that is acceptable to the Corporation and must contain the information that the Corporation may require. Granting of application Subject to section 26.04, the Corporation may give that authorization if [Repealed, 2001, c. 9, s. 209] the sum of all the deposits held by the federal member institution that are less than $150,000 and payable in Canada is less than one per cent of the sum of all the deposits held by the institution that are payable in Canada; the institution has informed all its depositors, in accordance with any rules that may be prescribed by the by-laws, that the institution has applied to become authorized to accept deposits while no longer being a member institution, that after the institution receives that authorization, no deposit with the institution will be insured in whole or in part by the Corporation, and that the institution’s obligation to repay the deposit to the depositor will be assumed by a member institution if an option referred to in subparagraph (d)(i) or (ii) is not exercised; in respect of each deposit that is held by the institution, the institution has obtained from the depositor an acknowledgement in writing that the deposit will no longer be insured in whole or in part by the Corporation after the institution receives authorization to accept deposits without being a member institution, at the request in writing of the depositor, paid to the depositor the principal amount of the deposit and interest determined in accordance with rules prescribed by the by-laws and has not charged any fee or penalty in connection with the payment, or obtained from a member institution an agreement in writing to assume the institution’s liability in relation to the deposit on the same terms and conditions; and the institution has paid to the Corporation a fee determined in accordance with rules prescribed by the by-laws. Exchange rate For the purpose of subsection (1), the rate of exchange that shall be applied on any day in determining the amount in Canadian dollars of a deposit in a currency of a country other than Canada shall be determined in accordance with rules prescribed by the by-laws. Minister and Superintendent to be informed Before giving an authorization under subsection 26.03(1), the Corporation must inform the Minister and the Superintendent that it proposes to give the authorization. Minister may prevent authorization If the Minister is of the opinion that giving the authorization would not be in the public interest, the Minister may, within thirty days after being informed about the proposal to give the authorization, direct the Corporation not to give the authorization. Authorization after 30 days If the Minister does not issue that direction within those 30 days, the Corporation may then give the authorization under subsection 26.03(1). The giving of the authorization cancels the policy of deposit insurance of the federal member institution to which the authorization is given. Amendment of order If the Corporation gives the authorization under subsection 26.03(1), the Superintendent must, under paragraph 54(1)(a) of the Bank Act, paragraph 62(1)(a) of the Cooperative Credit Associations Act or paragraph 58(1)(b) of the Trust and Loan Companies Act, as the case may be, amend the federal member institution’s order approving the commencement and carrying on of business accordingly. Fees by-law A by-law prescribing rules for the purpose of paragraph 26.03(1)(e) is not effective unless it has been approved in writing by the Minister. Deposits not insured After a federal member institution has been given authorization under subsection 26.03(1), no deposit with the institution is insured in whole or in part by the Corporation. Annual inspections The Superintendent shall, notwithstanding any other Act of Parliament, examine on behalf of the Corporation the affairs of each federal member institution once in each year and at the times that the Corporation may require for a specified purpose. Costs Where an examination under subsection (1) is made for a specified purpose, such costs incurred in relation thereto as in the opinion of the Superintendent are extraordinary shall be borne by the Corporation. Provincial member institutions It is a condition of the policy of deposit insurance of a provincial member institution that the Corporation or a person designated by the Corporation may, at least once in each year and at such other times as the Corporation deems appropriate, make or cause to be made such inspections of the affairs of the provincial member institution as the Corporation or that person may deem to be necessary or expedient; the Corporation and the person designated by the Corporation have, for the purposes referred to in paragraph (a), a right of access to the records of the member institution; and the member institution will cause its officers and auditors to furnish such information and explanations pertaining to its affairs as the Corporation or the person designated by the Corporation may require. Costs may be charged back Where an examination or an inspection is carried out other than once in each year, the Corporation may pay the costs of the examination or inspection; charge the costs to the member institution in respect of which they were incurred; and recover the costs from the member institution as a debt due and payable to the Corporation. Examination considerations The person who conducts an examination under section 27 or an inspection under section 28 in respect of a member institution shall make all examinations or inspections that the person considers necessary to provide, by way of a rating or any other means, an assessment of the safety and soundness of the member institution, including its financial condition; comment on the operations of the member institution; if the member institution is a domestic systemically important bank, provide an assessment of its capacity to absorb losses that it is required to maintain under section 485 of the Bank Act; and if the member institution is a provincial institution and the Corporation and the person agree, comment on whether the provisions of the statutes governing the provincial institution are being complied with. Reports The person shall provide written reports to the Corporation on the matters referred to in paragraphs (1)(a) to (c) in a timely manner. Right of Corporation to information The Corporation is entitled to all information obtained by or produced by or for the person, whether in the course of conducting the examination or inspection or otherwise, regarding the affairs of the member institution or any of its affiliates or of any person dealing with the member institution or any of its affiliates. Obligation to provide other information Without limiting subsection (3), the person shall provide the Corporation with any information that the person considers relevant to any matter referred to in any of paragraphs (1)(a) to (c) or to any report provided under subsection (2). Obligation to inform The person shall without delay inform the Corporation if, at any time, whether in the course of conducting an examination or inspection or otherwise, there comes to the attention of the person any change in the circumstances of the member institution that might materially affect the position of the Corporation as an insurer. Review of returns If requested to do so by the Corporation, the person who conducts an examination under section 27 or an inspection under section 28 in respect of a member institution shall review, or cause another person to review on the person’s behalf, within the time specified by the Corporation, the correctness of the returns made by the member institution on which its premiums are based and through which its premium classification is in part determined. Certain reports to be provided to Corporation When a report is sent by the Superintendent to the Minister under section 643 of the Bank Act, section 505 of the Trust and Loan Companies Act or section 437 of the Cooperative Credit Associations Act, a copy of the report shall be sent by the Superintendent at the same time to the Corporation. Reporting breaches If, in the Corporation’s opinion, a member institution is in breach of a provision of this Act or the regulations, a by-law of the Corporation or a condition of its policy of deposit insurance, the Corporation may send a report of the facts to the chief executive officer or chairperson of the board of directors of the member institution. The report may be sent by registered mail or delivered by hand and a copy of it must be provided to the Minister. Presentation of report to directors The chief executive officer or chairperson of the board of directors of a member institution to whom a report has been sent or delivered under subsection (1) shall, within 15 days after the receipt of the report, cause the report to be presented to a meeting of the board of directors of the member institution and to be incorporated in the minutes of the meeting; and a certified copy of that portion of the minutes of the meeting that relates to the presentation of the report to be sent by registered mail to the chief executive officer of the Corporation at its head office. Notice of termination Where a report has been sent or delivered under subsection 30(1) and the progress made by the member institution in remedying the breach is not satisfactory to the Corporation, the Corporation shall, by notice, where the member institution is a federal member institution, so inform the institution and the Minister; and where the member institution is a provincial member institution, give the institution not less than thirty days notice of the termination of its policy of deposit insurance. Copy to provincial Minister Where a notice of termination is given to a provincial member institution under subsection (1), the Corporation shall forthwith send a copy thereof to the appropriate provincial Minister. Termination of policy The policy of deposit insurance of a provincial member institution shall terminate on the expiration of the period specified in the notice given under subsection (1) unless, before the expiration of that period, the Corporation is satisfied that the member institution is taking the necessary action to remedy the breach to which the notice relates; or the appropriate provincial Minister requests an extension of the period to enable the necessary remedial action to be taken, in which case the termination may be deferred by the Corporation for a further period not exceeding sixty days. Where report on federal member institution Where a report has been sent or delivered under subsection 30(1) in respect of a federal member institution and the member institution and the Minister have been informed in accordance with subsection (1) by the Corporation that the Corporation is not satisfied with the member institution’s progress in remedying the breach to which the report relates, the Corporation may, unless the Minister advises the Corporation that the Minister is of the opinion that it is not in the public interest to do so, give the member institution not less than thirty days notice of the termination of its policy of deposit insurance. The policy of deposit insurance of a federal member institution shall terminate on the expiration of the period specified in the notice given under subsection (4) or such later period not exceeding sixty days as the Corporation may determine unless, before the expiration of that period, the Corporation is satisfied that the member institution is taking the necessary action to remedy the breach to which the notice relates. Conditions of extension The Corporation may impose conditions on a federal member institution in connection with any extension of the period referred to in subsection (5) and failure by the federal member institution to comply with any such condition constitutes a termination of the extension. Revoking notice Where, at any time after a notice of termination has been given to a member institution under subsection 31(1) or (4), the Corporation is satisfied that as the result of any action by the member institution, or any other person, the risk to depositors or to the Corporation has been averted or substantially reduced, the Corporation may revoke its notice of termination. Acceleration of termination of policy of deposit insurance Despite any other provision of this Act, if, at any time after a notice of termination has been given to a provincial member institution under subsection 31(1), the Corporation concludes that the financial condition of the provincial member institution has deteriorated since the giving of the notice, and the interests of depositors will be adversely affected by any further delay in terminating the provincial member institution’s policy of deposit insurance, the Corporation shall without delay send a notice by registered mail, or deliver a notice by hand, to the provincial member institution and to the appropriate provincial Minister, to the effect that the policy of deposit insurance of the institution will be terminated on the expiration of a period of five days after the receipt of the notice by the institution. Revocation The Board of Directors of the Corporation or one of its committees established for the purpose may, before the expiry of the period specified in the notice, revoke the notice if, after considering any written representations made by the provincial member institution, it is satisfied that it is appropriate to do so. [Repealed, 2007, c. 6, s. 414] The Corporation shall revoke a notice sent or delivered under subsection (1) where the appropriate provincial Minister or provincial supervisor, as the case may be, has taken control of the provincial member institution or its assets. Unless a notice sent or delivered under subsection (1) is revoked under subsection (3) or (4), the policy of deposit insurance of the provincial member institution to which the notice was sent or delivered shall terminate on the expiration of the period specified in the notice. Effect of revocation The revocation of a notice under subsection (3) or (4) does not revoke a notice given under subsection 31(1). Termination of policy by provincial member institution A provincial member institution may terminate a policy of deposit insurance by giving such notice of termination as may be required by the policy. Effect of termination Unless the policy of deposit insurance of a provincial member institution otherwise provides, section 34 applies in respect of deposits with the institution on the termination of the policy by the institution. Cancellation Subject to subsection (3), the policy of deposit insurance of a member institution may be cancelled by the Corporation if, in the opinion of the Corporation, the member institution is or is about to become insolvent; has ceased to accept deposits; or has not begun to accept deposits within a period of two years beginning on the day on which it became a member institution. If a member institution intends to cease to accept deposits, it must notify the Corporation and the institution’s policy of deposit insurance may, subject to subsection (3), be cancelled by the Corporation. No cancellation in certain cases The Corporation shall notify the Minister and the Superintendent of the action it is proposing to take under subsection (1) or (2) and it shall not take the action if it is advised by the Minister that in the opinion of the Minister taking the action would not be in the public interest. Effect of termination or cancellation If the policy of deposit insurance of a member institution is terminated or cancelled by the Corporation, the deposits with the institution on the day the termination or cancellation takes effect, less any withdrawals from those deposits, continue to be insured under the terminated or cancelled policy of deposit insurance for a period of two years or, in the case of a term deposit with a remaining term exceeding two years, to the maturity of the term deposit. Non-application of continued coverage Subsection (1) does not apply in respect of a deposit with a member institution if the deposit has been assumed by another member institution; or a former member institution that has received authorization to accept deposits payable in Canada without being a member institution and the policy of deposit insurance of which has been cancelled. Corporations not member institutions A corporation is not considered to be a member institution by reason only that its deposits continue to be insured under subsection (1). Continuing obligations Termination or cancellation of a policy of deposit insurance does not relieve a former member institution from obligations and liabilities to the Corporation that have accrued before the termination or cancellation. If the policy of deposit insurance of a federal member institution is cancelled by the Corporation under paragraph 33(1)(b) or (c) or subsection 33(2), the Superintendent must, under paragraph 54(1)(a) of the Bank Act, paragraph 62(1)(a) of the Cooperative Credit Associations Act or paragraph 58(1)(b) of the Trust and Loan Companies Act, as the case may be, amend the federal member institution’s order approving the commencement and carrying on of business to prohibit the institution from accepting deposits in Canada. Creditor remedies available Where in the opinion of the Corporation a member institution is or is about to become insolvent, the Corporation is deemed to be a creditor of the member institution and the Corporation may initiate and take any measures or proceedings that a creditor of the member institution may initiate or take under law to preserve the assets of the member institution or to have it wound up or liquidated. No measures to be taken in certain cases The Corporation shall notify the Minister of the action it is proposing to take under subsection (1) and shall not take the action if it is advised by the Minister that in the opinion of the Minister taking the action would not be in the public interest. Presumption For the purposes of this section, the Corporation is deemed to be a creditor of a member institution despite the termination or cancellation of the institution’s policy of deposit insurance. Removal of references to deposit insurance If the policy of deposit insurance of a member institution is terminated or cancelled, the member institution shall notify its depositors of that fact and shall remove all references to deposit insurance under this Act from all forms of advertising by the institution. Public notice The Corporation may, in the manner and through any news media that it considers appropriate, give public notice of the termination or cancellation of the policy of deposit insurance of a member institution if, in the opinion of the Corporation, the public interest requires that such notice be given. Provincial deposit insurance If under the law of any province the government of the province or an agent of that government guarantees or insures any of the deposits with a provincial institution operating within the province, the Corporation, subject to section 17.1 and any agreement entered into under subsection (3), may insure some or all of the deposits with the institution; or amend the institution’s policy of deposit insurance, to exclude from the policy any of the deposits with the institution.

Approval by Minister If a transaction referred to in subsection (1) or (2), other than one described in subsection (2.1), requires the approval of the Superintendent under the Bank Act, the Cooperative Credit Associations Act, the Insurance Companies Act or the Trust and Loan Companies Act, that approval is not required despite those Acts but the transaction has no force or effect until the Minister approves it after consultation with the Superintendent. Conversion An order made under paragraph 39.13(1)(d) gives the Corporation the power to convert, or cause the federal member institution to convert, in whole or in part — by means of a transaction or series of transactions and in one or more steps — the institution’s shares and liabilities that are prescribed by the regulations made under subsection (10) into common shares of that institution or of any of its affiliates. Terms and conditions Subject to any regulations made under subsection (10) and any by-laws made under subsection (12), the Corporation shall set the terms and conditions of the conversion, including its timing.

The notice must specify the date on which the notice is to take effect.

[Repealed, 2016, c. 7, s. 139] Novation Any person who assumes a liability of the federal member institution under a transaction referred to in subsection (1) or (2) becomes liable — instead of the federal member institution — to discharge the liability, on approval of the transaction by the Minister or as soon as the person assumes the liability if the transaction does not require the Minister’s approval. Subsection (6) does not apply to the bridge institution’s assumption of any portion of the federal member institution’s liability that is not insured by the Corporation. Novation — trust A trust company within the meaning of subsection 57(2) of the Trust and Loan Companies Act that is designated as a bridge institution may become a trustee in substitution for the federal member institution without formality or the consent of any beneficiary of the trust. Effects of conversion The conversion of shares or liabilities under subsection (2.3) subject to paragraphs (b) and (c), extinguishes any claim, interest or right in respect of the shares or liabilities, or part of them, that were converted; does not extinguish any claim to the extent that the claim is a personal claim against a person other than the Corporation, the federal member institution or a person claiming under the Corporation or the federal member institution; and does not prevent a secured creditor or an assignee or successor in interest of the person who was the holder of the shares or liabilities immediately before the conversion from being entitled to receive compensation under section 39.23. The Governor in Council may make regulations respecting conversion for the purposes of this section. Regulations — application Regulations made under subsection (10) may, if they so provide, apply in respect of shares and liabilities that were issued or that originated before the day on which the first regulation made under that subsection comes into force if, on or after that day, they are amended or, in the case of liabilities, their term is extended; or that are issued or that originate on or after that day. The Corporation may make by-laws respecting conversion for the purposes of this section, including by-laws that prescribe, for the purposes of subsection (2.3), the interim instruments into which shares and liabilities may be converted before they are converted into common shares. Inconsistency In the event of any inconsistency between the regulations made under subsection (10) and the by-laws made under subsection (12), the regulations prevail to the extent of the inconsistency. Terms and conditions of transactions If the Corporation as receiver for a federal member institution carries out a transaction with a bridge institution, the Corporation shall establish the terms and conditions of the transaction, including which assets the bridge institution shall acquire and the consideration to be paid for the assets acquired; and which liabilities the bridge institution shall assume and the consideration to be paid for the liabilities assumed. Reasonable consideration The consideration referred to in paragraph (1)(a) shall be reasonable in the circumstances. [Repealed, 2016, c. 7, s. 140] Deposit liabilities assumed A bridge institution shall assume a federal member institution’s deposit liabilities that are both insured by the Corporation and posted in the federal member institution’s records as of the date and time specified in the order referred to in paragraph 39.13(1)(c). Interest Any interest accrued on the deposit liabilities referred to in subsection (1) is assumed by the bridge institution. Deeming deposits or withdrawals not entered Any deposit or withdrawal that is made on or before that date and time but is not posted in the records of the federal member institution as of that date and time, and any deposit or withdrawal made after that date and time, are deemed to be deposited with or withdrawn from, as the case may be, the bridge institution. Any interest accruing on the deposits referred to in subsection (1.2) is owed by the bridge institution. If the bridge institution assumes any portion of a federal member institution’s liability that is not insured by the Corporation, the bridge institution is subrogated to all the rights and interests of the creditor against the federal member institution in relation to the entire liability and may maintain an action in respect of those rights and interests in its own name or in the name of the creditor. Creditor’s rights and interests As soon as the bridge institution receives an amount equal to the liabilities that are not insured by the Corporation that it assumed, the rights and interests in respect of the balance remaining revert to the creditor. Liquidator bound The liquidator of a federal member institution appointed under the Winding-up and Restructuring Act is bound by the terms and conditions of any transaction that involves the sale or other disposition of the federal member institution’s assets or the assumption by a bridge institution of any portion of the federal member institution’s liabilities and shall carry out those transactions or cause them to be carried out. Expenses All costs, charges and expenses properly incurred by the liquidator in complying with the terms and conditions of any transaction referred to in subsection (1), including the liquidator’s remuneration, are payable by the bridge institution. Right transferable If the assets that are sold under a transaction described in section 39.2 or by a bank designated as a bridge institution include any outstanding security under section 426 or 427 of the Bank Act, the buyer of the assets may hold the security for the life of the loan to which the security relates and all the provisions of that Act relating to the security and its enforcement continue to apply to the buyer as though the buyer were a bank. Winding-up The Corporation shall apply for a winding-up order in respect of a federal member institution under the Winding-up and Restructuring Act if a notice has not been published under subsection 39.2(3) in respect of the institution on or before the day that is 12 months after the day on which the order is made under subsection 39.13(1); or the day on which any extension of that period ends. Winding-up — certain cases Despite subsection (1), if an order is made under paragraph 39.13(1)(d) or subsection 39.13(1.3) in respect of the institution, the Corporation shall apply for a winding-up order in respect of the institution under the Winding-up and Restructuring Act if a notice has not been published under subsection 39.2(3) in respect of the institution on or before the day that is one year after the day on which the order is made under subsection 39.13(1) or any shorter period specified in the order made under paragraph 39.13(1)(d) or subsection 39.13(1.3), as the case may be; or the day on which any extension of the applicable period ends. Deeming For the purposes of the Winding-up and Restructuring Act, the Corporation is deemed to be a creditor of the federal member institution. The Governor in Council may, by order made on the recommendation of the Minister, grant one or more extensions of the period set out in subsection (1) but the last extension must expire not later than the day that is 18 months after the day on which the order is made under subsection 39.13(1). Extension — certain cases The Governor in Council may, by order made on the recommendation of the Minister, grant one or more extensions of the applicable period set out in subsection (1.1) — of up to one year each — but the last extension must expire not later than five years after the day on which the order is made under subsection 39.13(1). Amount of compensation If an order is made under subsection 39.13(1), the Corporation shall, in accordance with the regulations and the by-laws, determine the amount of compensation, if any, to be paid to a prescribed person. Persons entitled to compensation Only a prescribed person who is, as a result of the application of the regulations, in a worse financial position than they would have been had the federal member institution been liquidated under the Winding-up and Restructuring Act is entitled to be paid compensation. Duty to pay compensation The Corporation shall pay the compensation and shall decide whether to pay it wholly or partly in cash or wholly or partly in any other form, including shares, that the Corporation considers appropriate. Determining amount — no comparison with others In determining the amount of compensation to which a person is entitled, the following shall not be taken into account: any shares or other interest or right received by another person as a result of an order made under subsection 39.13(1) or retained by another person; and any common shares received by another person as a result of a conversion of shares or liabilities in accordance with the contractual terms of those shares or liabilities. Decision conclusive Except as otherwise provided in this Act, a decision made by the Corporation under section 39.23 or by an assessor appointed under section 39.26 is for all purposes final and conclusive and shall not be questioned or reviewed in any court. [Repealed, 1996, c. 6, s. 41] Payment of the compensation by the Corporation under section 39.23 discharges the Corporation from its obligations under that section and in no case is the Corporation under any obligation to see to the proper application in any way of any such payment. Appointment of assessor In the circumstances prescribed by the regulations, the Governor in Council shall, by order, appoint as assessor a judge who is in receipt of a salary under the Judges Act to review a decision made by the Corporation under subsection 39.23(1) and determine the amount of compensation, if any, to be paid to a prescribed person. Sittings and hearings An assessor may sit at any place and shall arrange for the sittings and hearings that may be required. Powers of assessor The assessor has all the powers conferred on a commissioner appointed under Part II of the Inquiries Act for the purpose of obtaining evidence under oath. An assessor may appoint a person to assist him or her in performing his or her functions.

Payment Fees and disbursements payable to the person may be included by the assessor in an amount awarded in respect of costs under subsection (5) or (6). Costs of prescribed person If the assessor determines that it is just and reasonable that costs in the proceeding before the assessor be awarded to a prescribed person and against the Corporation, the amount that the assessor determines to be just and reasonable to award in respect of those costs is payable by the Corporation to the prescribed person. Costs of Corporation If the assessor determines that it is just and reasonable that costs in the proceeding before the assessor be awarded to the Corporation and against a prescribed person, the amount that the assessor determines to be just and reasonable to award in respect of those costs constitutes a debt payable by the prescribed person to the Corporation and may be recovered as such in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Governor in Council may make regulations respecting compensation for the purposes of sections 39.23 to 39.27, including regulations prescribing persons referred to in subsection 39.23(1); respecting the factors that the Corporation shall or shall not consider in making a decision under subsection 39.23(1); respecting the circumstances in which an assessor must be appointed under section 39.26; respecting the factors that an assessor shall or shall not consider in making a decision; and respecting procedural requirements. The Corporation may make by-laws respecting compensation for the purposes of section 39.23. In the event of any inconsistency between the regulations made under subsection (1) and the by-laws made under subsection (2), the regulations prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

Co-ownership For greater certainty, if two or more persons are co-owners of two or more deposits, the aggregate of those deposits shall be insured to a maximum of one hundred thousand dollars.

Error or omission An error or omission that results in a failure to meet a requirement of this schedule does not prevent a deposit from being considered a separate deposit under subsection (1), (2) or (3) if the trustee is aware of the error or omission and has made their best efforts to correct it; or the trustee is not aware of the error or omission but has exercised due diligence to be in compliance with the requirements of this schedule. [Repealed, 2021, c. 23, s. 132] Additional conditions The following conditions apply to nominee broker deposits in addition to those set out in section 6: at the time the deposit is made and each time a change is made to the deposit, the nominee broker must provide the following information to the member institution for it to disclose on its records the fact that the deposit is made by a nominee broker, the unique alphanumeric code for each beneficiary of the deposit, assigned in accordance with the by-laws, the amount or percentage of the interest or right of the beneficiary associated with that code, and any other information specified in the by-laws; and the nominee broker must provide, in accordance with the by-laws, the following to the Corporation, within three business days after the day on which a request is made by the Corporation: each unique alphanumeric code provided under subparagraph (a)(ii), the current name and address of the beneficiary associated with that code, and any other information specified in the by-laws respecting the deposit. If two or more persons are co-owners of a deposit, they are, for the purposes of assigning a unique alphanumeric code, considered to be a single beneficiary, separate from any of the persons as a beneficiary — in their own right, in a trust capacity or in another co-ownership capacity — of a deposit made by the same nominee broker with the same member institution. Member institution requirements — agreements and arrangements If a member institution enters into an agreement or arrangement respecting nominee broker deposits, the member institution must ensure that the agreement or arrangement includes provisions that require the nominee broker to provide information to the Corporation in accordance with paragraph 7(1)(b); to make an initial attestation to the Corporation and updated attestations in accordance with the bylaws that state whether the nominee broker is, or is not, capable of fullfilling the obligations set out in paragraph 7(1)(b); and to provide and update contact information in accordance with the by-laws to the member institution.

If a member institution enters into an agreement or arrangement respecting nominee broker deposits, the member institution must notify the Corporation in accordance with the by-laws. Notice — end of agreement or arrangement If a member institution that has entered into an agreement or arrangement respecting nominee broker deposits is no longer a party to that agreement or arrangement, the member institution must notify the Corporation in accordance with the by-laws. Failure to comply with paragraph 7(1)(a) If the member institution receives moneys from or holds moneys in a nominee broker deposit and the nominee broker fails to comply with paragraph 7(1)(a), the member institution must, as soon as possible after the failure, provide the nominee broker with the information specified in the by-laws. Professional trustee account A member institution must identify an account as a professional trustee account if the depositor makes an attestation, in accordance with the by-laws, stating that they are a professional trustee; provides contact information in accordance with the by-laws; and requests that the account to be identified as a professional trustee account. If a deposit referred to in subsection 6(3) is held in an account identified as a professional trustee account, the interest or right of each beneficiary in the deposit does not have to be disclosed on the records of the member institution. However, the interest or right of each beneficiary in the deposit is not, for the purposes of deposit insurance with the Corporation, considered to be a separate deposit unless the depositor meets the conditions set out in section 11. In respect of a deposit held in an account identified as a professional trustee account, the following conditions apply in addition to those set out in subsections 6(1) and (2): the depositor must, in accordance with the by-laws, maintain a record that sets out the current name and address of each beneficiary of a deposit in the account and the amount or percentage of the interest or right of each beneficiary; the depositor must provide, in accordance with the by-laws, information respecting deposits in the account to the Corporation if a request is made by the Corporation; and each April, the depositor must provide the member institution with an attestation, in accordance with the by-laws, stating that they continue to be a professional trustee, confirmation that the account is to continue to be identified as a professional trustee account, and updated contact information in accordance with the by-laws.

Designation removed A member institution must remove the designation of an account identified as a professional trustee account if the depositor requests that the designation be removed; or the depositor fails to carry out the actions referred to in paragraph 11(c) by April 30. Information privileged For greater certainty, the provision by a depositor to the Corporation of information respecting deposits held in an account identified as a professional trustee account that is subject to solicitor-client privilege or the professional secrecy of advocates and notaries does not constitute a waiver of the privilege or secrecy. For the purposes of the provisions of this schedule, the Board may make by-laws respecting information that is to be disclosed on the records of a member institution in respect of a co-ownership interest, a trusteeship or the interest or right of a beneficiary in a deposit; respecting the assignment of unique alphanumeric codes for beneficiaries of nominee broker deposits; specifying information that is to be disclosed on the records of a member institution in respect of a nominee broker deposit; specifying the information a nominee broker is to provide, and the form and manner in which it is to be provided, under paragraph 7(1)(b); respecting attestations by nominee brokers and professional trustees; respecting contact information referred to in paragraph 8(1)(c) and 9(b) and subparagraph 11(c)(iii); respecting notification requirements for agreements or arrangements respecting nominee broker deposits; specifying information for the purposes of subsection 8(4); respecting records to be maintained under paragraph 11(a); specifying the information a professional trustee is to provide, and the form and manner in which it is to be provided, under paragraph 11(b); and respecting the provision of information to trustees under subsection 6(5).

Subsection (1) applies only in respect of deposit moneys received by an institution after that subsection comes into force. Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Act The amendment to the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Act made by section 103 of this Act applies only to a federal member institution in respect of which an order under subsection 39.13(1) of that Act is made on or after the day on which the amendment comes into force. Review After April 30, 2024, the Minister of Finance must undertake a review of section 12.01 of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Act, as that section reads on April 30, 2024. The Minister must publish a report on the review. Section 39.24 of the English version of the Act is replaced by the following: Determination and decision conclusive Except as otherwise provided in this Act, a determination or decision made by the Corporation under section 39.23 or by an assessor appointed under section 39.26 is for all purposes final and conclusive and shall not be questioned or reviewed in any court. Section 39.26 of the Act is replaced by the following: In the circumstances prescribed by the regulations, the Governor in Council shall, by order, appoint as assessor a judge who is in receipt of a salary under the Judges Act to review a determination made by the Corporation under subsection 39.23(1). In reviewing the Corporation’s determination, the assessor shall decide whether the Corporation made its determination based on an erroneous finding of fact that it made in a perverse or capricious manner or without regard for the material before it or on an unreasonable estimate. Confirmation of determination If the assessor decides that the Corporation did not make its determination based on such a finding of fact or on such an estimate, the assessor shall confirm the Corporation’s determination. Determination of amount If the assessor decides that the Corporation made its determination based on such a finding of fact or on such an estimate, the assessor shall determine, in accordance with the regulations and the by-laws, the amount of compensation, if any, to be paid to the prescribed person and substitute the assessor’s determination for the Corporation’s determination. Subsection 39.28(2) of the Act is replaced by the following:

The Corporation may make by-laws respecting compensation for the purposes of sections 39.23 and 39.26. The Act is amended by adding the following after section 12.1: pre-existing deposit means a deposit that was made with a local cooperative credit society before the transaction day and that remains outstanding on that day. (dépôt préexistant) transaction day, in respect of the assets of a local cooperative credit society acquired by a federal credit union under a purchase agreement referred to in section 236.1 of the Bank Act, means the day on which the acquisition is made. (date de l’opération) in the case of a pre-existing deposit that is to be repaid on a fixed day, the period that begins on the transaction day and ends on that fixed day; and in the case of any other pre-existing deposit, the period that begins on the transaction day and ends on the day that is 180 days after that day. (période transitoire) Despite paragraph 12(c) and subsection 4(2) of the schedule, but subject to the other provisions of this Act, if a pre-existing deposit is held by a federal credit union that is a member institution and all or a portion of the pre-existing deposit would have been guaranteed or insured under the law of a province if the assets of the local cooperative credit society had not been acquired by the federal credit union, the Corporation must insure the pre-existing deposit during the transition period up to the amount that would have been guaranteed or insured under the law of that province. During the transition period, a pre-existing deposit, less any withdrawals from the pre-existing deposit, is deemed, for the purposes of deposit insurance with the Corporation, to be a deposit separate from any deposit made on or after the transaction day. Section 13 of the Act is amended by adding the following after subsection (5): Deemed amalgamation When a federal credit union acquires all or substantially all of the assets of a local cooperative credit society, the transaction is deemed to be an amalgamation of two member institutions for the purposes of this section. The Act is amended by adding the following after section 23: Calculation of first premium upon acquisition When a federal credit union acquires all or substantially all of the assets of a local cooperative credit society, the premium payable by the federal credit union in respect of those assets is calculated in accordance with section 23, which applies, with any necessary modifications, to those assets as if they belonged to a member institution on the day on which the acquisition is made. The schedule to the Act is amended by replacing the references after the heading “SCHEDULE” with the following:
