Separate corporate personality is not a loophole or technicality, but is an essential principle of corporate law, the Alberta Court of Appeal recently reiterated in Condominium Corporation No. 0828219 v Carrington Holdings Ltd., 2023 ABCA 222 [Carrington] and Swanby v Tru-Square Homes Ltd, 2023 ABCA 224 [Swanby]. Together, Carrington and Swanby highlight the powerful impact of separate corporate personality on shareholder liability for the actions of their corporations.
