ONCA TRANSITION

Outsiders provides 4 services to help organizations transition

to the Ontario Not-For-Profit Corporations Act (ONCA)
before the October 19, 2024 deadline.

What is the ONCA transition?

As of October 2021, Ontario replaced Part III of the Ontario Corporations Act (OCA) with the Ontario Not-for-Profit Corporations Act (ONCA).

 

As a result of this new legislation, all not-for-profits incorporated under the OCA must transition to the ONCA.

What does this mean for your organization?

All not-for-profit corporations incorporated in Ontario must transition to the Ontario Not-for-Profit Corporations Act (ONCA) by October 19, 2024. 

At a minimum, your organization likely requires changes to its letters patent and its bylaws.
