This episode discusses the advantages and disadvantages of incorporating a nonprofit organization (NPO) in Canada. Key benefits of incorporation include liability protection for members, continuity, a formal framework for dispute resolution, and the legal capacity to enter contracts and own property. Conversely, remaining unincorporated offers more flexibility, but leaves the nonprofit vulnerable to legal risks. The overall message encourages careful consideration of the implications before making a decision.
