You may use these model by-laws to help you draft by-laws. According to the Corporations Canada, the Canadian corporate regulatory authority, here, “(In your bylaws), you might want to set some rules for your corporation that are not dealt with in the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA). You also might want to modify some of the rules that are in the CBCA, as long as those changes are permitted by the Act. Among other things, your by-laws can:
Unless your corporation’s by-laws state otherwise, the directors have the power to make, repeal and amend the by-laws. Every new by-law and any by-law change (including the repeal of a by-law) require shareholder approval at the first regular meeting of shareholders after the directors have passed the new or amended by-law. The effective date of a by-law is the date it is passed by the directors, not the date of approval by shareholders.”
