When is a Power of Attorney required for a Limited Partnership?

A power of attorney must be executed by an extra-provincial limited partnership formed in a jurisdiction outside Canada that carries on business in Ontario.

An extra-provincial limited partnership formed in a jurisdiction within Canada that carries on business in Ontario but does not have a place of business in Ontario, must also execute a power of attorney.
