706 THE FEDERATIONS AND THE UNION [rant Iv vires, citing Citizens’ Insurance Co. of Canada v. Parsons! and Colonial Building and Investment Association v. Atltorney- General of Quebec? He admitted that the company could conclude contracts outside (e.g. buy machinery), but only as ancillary to provincial operations. In this case, besides the particular points at issue, the following general questions were asked :— 1. Is every charter issued by virtue of provincial legislation to be read subject to a constitutional limitation that it is prohibited to the company to carry on business beyond the limits of the province within which it is incorporated ? 2. Can an insurance company incorporated by letters patent issued under the authority of a Provincial Act carry on extra-provincial or universal insurance business, i.e. make contracts and insure property outside of the province, or make contracts within to insure property situate beyond ? 3. Has a province power to prohibit or impose conditions and restrictions upon extra-provincial insurance companies which transact business within its limits ? 4. Has Parliament authority to authorize the Governor in Council to permit a company locally incorporated to transact business throughout the Dominion or in foreign countries ? The judgement of the Court on the case was substantially in favour of the provinces, except that the last question was not answered by the majority of the Supreme Court. The Canadian Government have now brought before the Supreme Court the whole question of the powers of the provinces and the Dominion regarding companies on a special reference by the Governor-General in Council, which the Supreme Court has decided it has authority to hear. But from the preliminary point an appeal has been brought to the Crown in Council. The difficulty is brought to a head by the British Columbia Act ¢. 7 of 1910,® which requires all foreign companies either to be registered or take out a licence to act, and which forbids the recovery by such companies of debts within the province if not so registered and licensed. £7 App. Cas. 96. 2 9 App. Cas. 157.
