The Meeting Minutes Form is a fundamental governance document used across Canadian organizations to maintain official records of meetings. This document type is essential for compliance with Canadian corporate law requirements, including the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA) and provincial corporate legislation. Meeting minutes serve as the primary evidence of corporate decision-making and are legally required for board meetings, shareholder meetings, and committee meetings. They protect organizations by documenting that directors and officers have fulfilled their fiduciary duties and that decisions were made in accordance with proper procedures. The form captures critical information including attendance, quorum, discussions, decisions, voting results, and any dissenting opinions. These minutes may be reviewed by auditors, regulators, courts, or stakeholders and must be retained as part of the organization's permanent records.
