Division 1 Proposal Compared to Bankruptcy

Both Division 1 Proposals and bankruptcy are legal debt solutions under Canada’s insolvency laws. 

However, they serve different purposes. 

A Division 1 Proposal focuses on restructuring and negotiated repayment. 

Bankruptcy eliminates most unsecured debts but may involve the liquidation of certain assets.
