94. A yearly balance sheet must be submitted at each
annual general meeting, certified by a chartered
accountant or an auditor appointed pursuant

to the articles.

Winding-up is regulated by the Companies Winding-up Act
No. 198 of 1923. As in the case of the other Provinces, it deals
only with winding-up on grounds other than insolvency, and its
provisions are almost identical with the other Provincial
Winding-up Acts. Foreign companies are dealt with by the
Domestic, Dominion and Foreign Companies Act, No. 173 of
1923. Any foreign corporation may be registered on filing a
statement giving details as to its incorporation and capital,
the situation of its head office, and the name and address of its
registered agent in the Province.

Amending Act No. 70 of 1925 provides for the issue of shares
of no nominal or par value. No. 53 of 1926 gives the Registrar
power to strike off the register, companies against whom a final
winding-up order has been made, either under ‘The Winding-up
Act of the Dominion of Canada’ or ‘The Winding-up Act of the
Province of Nova Scotia.” Amending Act of 1927 contains
minor amendments relative to debentures; that of 1928 confers
the rights exerciseable under s. 120 of the English Act of 1908
as to a compromise or arrangement with creditors; and the
1929 Amending Act provides for registration fees of shares
without nominal or par value.

Special Acts relating to particular types of companies are the
Trust Companies Act, No. 181 of 1923, the Loan Companies Act,
No. 182 of 1923 (applicable to domestic companies), the Loan
Corporations Act, No. 183 of 1923 (applicable to foreign countries)
and the Insurance Companies Act, No. 187 of 1922
