2008-11-25
Directors of a corporation can be personally liable for certain debts should the corporation be bankrupt or be unable to pay the debts. These debts include: - certain employee wages - unpaid payroll remittances - unpaid GST Corporate income taxes owing to Canada Revenue Agency are not a personal liability of the director. There is an exception to this: - The directors transferred property to themselves at a time when the corporation owed corporate taxes (the transfer of property can include the payment of dividends). If the directors benefitted by receiving property or a dividend, they may be personally liable for the corporate income taxes.
