- Not be bankrupt
- Not have been found incapable of managing property within the meaning of the Substitute Decisions Act or the Mental Health Act
- Not have been found to be incapable by any court in Canada or elsewhere

Disclosure Responsibilities
Directors have a continuous disclosure obligation throughout the duration of their term. Disclosing ensure they can avoid discussions where they may have a conflict of interest. The directors must provide these disclosures in writing and keep them current. Failing this, they would immediately cease to be a director.
