Taikun, you are right, I was wrong, about Alberta. Indeed they have passed the legislation. As for Ontario, it's still up in the air. The Conservatives also introduced such a bill but they did not take any action to pass it. I personally find it a non issue. But I have seen some mutual fund managers quoted as saying it mattered to them and they wouldn't touch any trust until the thing was clarified. Actually it's still a bit muddy. A trust is headquartered in Alberta. If it goes belly up can an Ontario creditor sue the Ontario unitholders? Very moot and most unlikely even if, as I expect, Ontario does nothing about the bill.
