Insurance companies pay a duty of £1 per £100 of premiums. CANADA. I. THE DoMiINION COMPANIES ACTS. In Canada companies may be incorporated either under the Dominion law or under the law of the Prouince in which the company carries on its business. In some Provinces the law relating to companies is founded on the Dominion law; in others, on the law of England, and there are many laws founded partly on ‘he one system and partly on the other. The insolvency of companies, however, is a matter exclusively within the jurisdiction of the Dominion Parliament. It is only ander the Dominion Winding-up Act, 1927, that a creditor can obtain a winding-up order on the ground of insolvency. Each of the Provinces has its own provisions for winding-up, but these relate only to winding-up on grounds other than insolvency. The principal Companies Act is No. 27 of 1927, and there is one amending Act of 1930. There are also separate Acts dealing with special classes of companies, such as Loan Companies and Trust Companies. The main features of the principal Act, No. 27 of 1927 as amended by the Act, 1930, resemble closely the provisions of the English Act of 1929. There are, however, several points peculiar to Canada. They are: 5. 5. Incorporation is obtained by application for Letters Patent to the Secretary of State by not less than three persons.

Provides that a company shall possess as incidental and ancillary to the powers set out in the letters patent or supplementary letters patent, a large number of ‘general powers.” There is, however, at the end of the section, authority to withold anv or all if the powers of so desired.
