It is in the specific application of a particular section
of a provincial or federal act that the various liabilities of
non-profits and charities will be found. Each non-profit and
charity must have people who are familiar with the statutes which
contain the rules applicable to that organization. What follows
are brief highlights of a number of commonly-applicable statutes.
But, for example, the management and directors of a non-profit
organization providing low income housing would also want to
know what parts of the Residential Tenancies Act which is the
Chapter R-15.3 of the Revised Statutes of Alberta.
Similarly a non-profit or charity serving food would want
to know the provincial and municipal rules relating to food preparation
and serving.
