Every listed company whose head office is outside Canada must, as long as it is listed on the TSXV, appoint and maintain an address for service within Canada and attorn to the laws of the Province of Alberta and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

All companies that are not otherwise reporting issuers in Ontario are required to assess whether they have a significant connection to Ontario. They are required to make this assessment on an annual basis, in connection with the preparation for mailing of their annual financial statements. All companies must obtain and maintain, for three years after each annual review, evidence of the residency of their registered holders and beneficial holders.

While its securities are listed on the TSXV, a company must appoint and maintain a transfer agent and registrar with a principal office in one or more of Vancouver, British Columbia, Calgary, Alberta, Toronto, Ontario, Montreal, Quebec, or Halifax, Nova Scotia.
