Summary

This report recommends that the province of Alberta adopt three uniform statutes based on the work of the Uniform Law Conference of Canada. The Uniform Enforcement of Canadian Judgments and Decrees Act, Uniform Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Act and the Uniform Court Jurisdiction and Proceedings Transfer Act. These three uniform acts together create a legislative enforcement regime which, if implemented in Alberta, will encourage businesses operating elsewhere in Canada or the world, to conduct their business within Alberta due to the certainty that almost any judgment obtained outside Alberta will be recognized by the Alberta courts and enforceable in Alberta.
