There are many obstacles to selling a business to its employees.
Appellate Review And Special Costs In Committeeship Proceedings
In British Columbia, the Patients Property Act, RSBC 1996, c. 349 (the "Act"), allows the Supreme Court of British Columbia to declare an adult incapable of managing their own affairs (i.e. financial and legal matters) and person (i.e. personal and health care matters), based on the evidence of two physicians licensed to practice medicine in British Columbia. When such a declaration is made, the adult becomes a "patient" within the meaning of the Act.

Legal Closure: Understanding The Presumption Of Death Act In BC - Wills/ Intestacy/ Estate Planning - Canada
*This post was inspired by a similar post on the Declarations of Death Act, 2002 out of Ontario. The search for the OceanGate submarine and its five passengers captivated the world by storm this past June. The U.S. Coast Guard ultimately concluded that the "five crew members onboard the submersible were probably killed instantly in a 'catastrophic implosion'". Possible human remains have been recovered from the wreckage, but confirmation through medical analysis still needs to be done.

Death and IVF: Court Supports Posthumous Parentage Declaration
By Jeannette Aucoin and Vivian Thieu In a new case out of Alberta, the court considered two issues regarding post-humous parentage, and reflection of that parentage on a birth registration: 1) Can a parent be named on a birth registration notwithstanding the parent was deceased at the time an embryo was implanted? 2) Can the living parent apply to court to compel the Registrar of Vital Statistics to amend a birth registration to reflect the parentage of the deceased?
Treatment and prevention of severe hypoglycaemia in people with diabetes: Current and new formulations of glucagon
Abstract Some therapies for diabetes increase the risk of hypoglycaemia, in particular all insulins and insulin secretagogues, including the glinides and sulfonylureas. Hypoglycaemia remains a major limiting factor to successful glycaemic management, despite the availability of prevention options such as insulin analogues, continuous glucose monitoring, insulin pumps, and dogs that have been trained to detect hypoglycaemia.

Effect of once weekly dulaglutide by baseline beta‐cell function in people with type 2 diabetes in the AWARD programme
Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists lower blood glucose in type 2 diabetes (T2D) partially through glucose‐dependent stimulation of insulin secretion. The aim of this study was to investigate whether beta‐cell function (as measured by HOMA2‐%B) at baseline affects the glycaemic response to dulaglutide. Dulaglutide‐treated patients from AWARD‐1, AWARD‐3 and AWARD‐6 clinical studies were categorised based on their homeostatic model assessment of beta‐cell function (HOMA2‐%B) tertiles.
