Dear Sirs:
Re: Joint Exploration Corporations
This is in reply to your August 27, 1991 request for a technical interpretation concerning the definition of "joint exploration corporation".
We confirm that a principal business corporation will not be disqualified as being a "joint exploration corporation", within the meaning of paragraph 66(15)(g) of the Act solely by virtue of its having had, in the aggregate, more than ten (10) shareholders since incorporation, provided it did not have more than ten (10) shareholders at any particular time.
Yours truly,
Chief Resource Industries Section Bilingual Services and Resource Industries Division Rulings Directorate
