Summary

Summary#

This is an erratum published by the Office of Infrastructure of Canada on March 5, 2022. It corrects the wording of Article 1.4 in the earlier notice about the Supplementary letters patent amending the letters patent of the Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority (originally published July 3, 2021) to make clear how the authority’s board is defined.

What it does#

  • Replaces the text of Article 1.4 so the definition of “Board of Directors” reads: “Board of Directors means the Board of Directors of the corporation composed of a maximum of 9 members being the Directors and the Officer-Directors of the corporation.”
  • No other changes or new rules are mentioned in this notice; it only fixes that single wording point from the earlier publication.

Who's affected#

  • Mainly the Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority and people involved in its governance.
  • People who make or consider board appointments (federal officials and current board members) are the most likely to notice this correction.
  • The notice does not say whether it affects other groups or operations.

Why it matters#

  • It clarifies the maximum size of the authority’s board (9 members) and who counts as members (both Directors and Officer-Directors).
  • That clarity can matter for appointments, how the board is structured, and how many people may hold decision-making roles for the Windsor-Detroit Bridge project.
  • The item is an administrative correction to a prior notice rather than a new policy.
