(aa) "Nova Scotia LLP" has the same meaning as in the Partnership Act;

(ab) "partnership" means a partnership, whatsoever its purposes or objects may be, except a partnership whose sole purpose or object is farming or fishing and except persons who solely as tenants in common own or operate grist or sawmills, and includes a person who is engaged in business or otherwise for the purpose of gain and is not associated in partnership with any other person, but uses as his style in connection therewith some name or designation other than his own name or who, in such style, uses his own name with the addition of "and company" or some words or phrase indicating a plurality of persons;

(b) "Registrar" means the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies and includes the Deputy Registrar of Joint Stock Companies. R.S., c. 335, s. 2; 2002, c. 37, s. 3.

Sole proprietorship or partnership in reciprocating province

2A (1) This Act, other than Section 15, does not apply to a sole proprietorship where the sole proprietorship is registered pursuant to the laws of another province of Canada designated by the Governor in Council and the proprietor is ordinarily resident in that province of registration.

(2) This Act, other than Section 15, does not apply to a partnership, other than a sole proprietorship or an extra-provincial LLP, where the partnership is registered pursuant to the laws of another province of Canada designated by the Governor in Council and the partnership was formed in that province of registration.

(3) The Governor in Council may designate a province of Canada for the purpose of this Section where that province provides the equivalent exemption from registration to a partnership registered pursuant to this Act as provided by this Section.

(4) The exercise by the Governor in Council of the authority contained in subsection (3) shall be regulations within the meaning of the Regulations Act. 1993, c. 34, s. 1; 1999, c. 4, s. 27; 2002, c. 37, s. 4.

Certificate of registration required

3 (1) No person shall as partner carry out in whole or in part in the Province any of the purposes or objects of the partnership or do any act, matter or thing as a partner, unless and until the partnership holds a certificate, called a certificate of registration, issued by the Registrar as hereinafter provided and unless the certificate of registration is in force.

(2) No person shall as an agent, clerk or servant of a partnership, knowing that the partnership does not hold a certificate of registration that is in force, carry out in whole or in part in the Province any purpose or object of the partnership or do any act, matter or thing in the Province as an agent, clerk or servant of the partnership. R.S., c. 335, s. 3.

Issue of certificate and restrictions on name

4 (1) The Registrar shall, unless it is otherwise in this Act provided, issue a certificate of registration to a partnership when the declaration hereinafter mentioned is filed.

(2) No partnership shall be registered under a name identical with that of any other subsisting partnership

or company incorporated or unincorporated or so nearly resembling the same as to be calculated to deceive except in a case where such subsisting partnership or company is in the course of being dissolved and testifies its consent in such manner as the Registrar requires, provided that this subsection shall not apply to a partnership which carries on business under the name or names of one or more of the partners.

(3) No partnership shall be registered under a name which, in the opinion of the Registrar, suggests or is calculated to suggest the patronage of Her Majesty or of any member of the Royal Family or connection with Her Majesty's Government or any department thereof.

(4) The Registrar may refuse to register any partnership under a name which he considers to be objectionable.

(5) If any partnership, through inadvertence or otherwise, is or has been registered by a name

(a) identical with that of any other subsisting company or partnership, incorporated or unincorporated, or which the Registrar considers so nearly to resemble the same as to be calculated to deceive, or which, without the consent of the Governor in Council, contains any words prohibited under subsection (3); or

(b) which the Registrar considers to be otherwise objectionable by reason of this Section or otherwise,

the first mentioned partnership shall, upon the direction of the Registrar, change its name and, if any partnership fails to change its name within two months after being so directed, the Registrar may change its name to any name he considers to be unobjectionable, and upon the change being made, the Registrar shall enter the new name on the register in place of the former name and shall issue a certificate of registration altered to meet the circumstances of the case.

(6) If any partner of a partnership feels aggrieved by the partnership having been directed by the Registrar to change its name, or by the Registrar having changed its name, the partner may apply to a judge of the Trial Division of the Supreme Court or of a county court and the judge, if satisfied that it is just so to do, may order that the name of the partnership shall not be changed, or that its former name be restored to the register, as the case may be, and the judge may, by the order, give such directions and make such provisions as seem just for placing the partnership and all persons in the same position, as nearly as may be, as if such direction had never been given or as if the name of the partnership had never been changed, or as the case may be, and when the former name of a partnership is so restored to the register, the Registrar shall issue a certificate of registration altered to meet the circumstances of the case. R.S., c. 335, s. 4; 2008, c. 65, s. 1.

Declaration

R.S., c. 335, s. 6; 2002, c. 37, s. 6.

Signing of declaration where partners non-resident
