I will draft a canadian sales and purchase agreement
Licensed Canadian Lawyer, Commercial Contracts and Ontario Legal Drafting
About this Gig
Closing a transaction in Canada using an American or generic web template exposes you to severe tax, regulatory, and enforcement risks. Canadian commercial law varies strictly by province, and an ambiguous Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA) can leave you liable for undisclosed debts, payment defaults, or invalid terms.
As an active Canadian lawyer (License # 73406S), I draft custom, enforceable Sales and Purchase Agreements structured specifically for Canadian provincial and federal laws.
What your agreement covers:
- Precise asset, share, or inventory descriptions and purchase price mechanics
- Proper Canadian tax provisions (GST/HST/PST and statutory elections where applicable)
- Ironclad representations, warranties, liability caps, and indemnification clauses
- Clear closing deliverables, title transfer, and default remedies
- Provincial governing law and dispute resolution frameworks (ON, BC, AB, and across Canada)
Protect your transaction before money changes hands. Select a package or message me with your deal terms to get started.

FAQ
Which Canadian provinces do you cover?
I draft agreements tailored to all Canadian common-law provinces and territories (including Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Atlantic Canada) as well as federally incorporated businesses.
What is the difference between an Asset Purchase and a Share Purchase?
In an asset purchase, the buyer acquires only specified business assets (equipment, inventory, client lists, goodwill) and leaves unauthorized liabilities behind. In a share purchase, the buyer acquires the entire corporate entit
What details do I need to provide after ordering?
You will provide the legal names of the buyer and seller, the province of the transaction, a list of what is being sold, the purchase price, payment structure, target closing date, and any special conditions agreed upon.
Does this agreement address Canadian sales tax (GST/HST)?
Yes. Properly allocating GST/HST or provincial sales tax (and referencing Section 167 tax elections for business asset sales where applicable) is built directly into the drafting process.
In what file format will I receive the contract?
You will receive both a fully editable Microsoft Word (.docx) file and a clean, signature-ready PDF file.
