Hi Nina, I can confirm we now have all legal documents in hand to give effect to the amalgamation. We will file the necessary amalgamation documentation so that the amalgamation takes effect on January 1, 2026 as planned. @Germaine Daniels<mailto:germaine.daniels@thekey.com>, we confirm you will handle all Provincial tax notification letters. We will coordinate the AMP letter with Fasken in the new year as we have 30 days post-amalgamation to inform AMP of the change. We will also provide the NEQ number for AmalCo for TheKey team to send to TheKey’s insurers. Please let me know if TheKey team requires any further assistance with the amalgamation notifications.

The changes were very minor, although I did add a reference to the new name of the Alberta numbered company as it now has the name 17519834 Canada Inc. For your reference, this is the name that was given when the Alberta numbered company continued into the Federal jurisdiction. These should be sent after the amalgamation so that you can enclose the certificate of amalgamation. These are to be sent on TheKey letterhead to the email or fax noted at the top of each letter. I suggest you insert Orofresh’s business address in the two letters to be sent for Orofresh. The address that is currently listed is our Clark Wilson address. Please let us know if you have any questions.

That said, I would be happy to send them out myself. I only ask because I will need to update the letter to make clear they are coming from legal counsel to TheKey. I will also need to make sure we have staff available as our office is closed on January 2. If you prefer that someone on your team send them out, then I can make sure the right revisions are in place. Let me know.

Some provinces do at times prefer to set-up new accounts as it relates to workers compensation accounts for which we generally make a request that they maintain the existing account (if possible).
