Excerpt from Canadian Companies Incorporation and the Doctrine of Ultra Vires in the Light of Privy Council Decisions Company os. Parsons is one of great importance in rela tion to the distribution of legislative power under the h.n.a. Act. Ou the one hand. The Provinces have exclusive jurisdiction in respect of Property and Civil Rights in the Province (sec. 92, clause On the other hand, the Dominion has exclusive legislative power over the subject of The Regulation of Trade and Commerce (sec. 91. Clause Dealing with these two factors in the above case, the Privy Council considered that sections 91 and 92 must, in regard to the classes of subjects generally described in sec. 91, be read together, and the language of one interpreted and, where necessary, modified by that of the other, so as to reconcile the respective powers they contain and give effect to all of them.
