B.C. Land Owner Transparency Register

On November 30, 2020, the Land Owner Transparency Act (“LOTA”) came into force in British Columbia. This legislation will impact almost everyone who acquires or currently holds an interest in land through a corporation, partnership, or trust.

Learn more about the LOTA, who is affected, and how to comply with the Act’s requirements in our blog post B.C. Introduces Land Owner Transparency Register.

If you have questions or concerns about the new Act or the Register we invite you to contact us.
