EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Explanatory Note was written as a reader's aid to Bill 80 and does not form part of the law. Bill 80 has been enacted as Chapter 13 of the Statutes of Ontario, 2008.

The Bill dissolves Algoma University College (hereinafter referred to as the "College") and re-establishes the institution as a university to be known as Algoma University.

The Bill sets out the objects and powers of Algoma University (sections 3 to 7). The Bill also specifies the governance structure for the University, which includes a board of governors (sections 8 to 17) and a senate (sections 18 to 24) in addition to a president and, if the board so chooses, a chancellor. Other provisions contained in the Bill relate to the administration of the University (sections 27 to 32) and to transitional matters (sections 33 to 37). One transitional provision ensures that the board of governors and senate of the College will act as the first board of governors and senate of the University until such time as the board and senate of the University are properly constituted in accordance with the Act.

Section 38 provides for future amendments to the legislation so that the degree-granting authority of the University may be expand over time. Before its dissolution, the College, in affiliation with Laurentian University, offered some programs upon completion of which degrees were granted. When the Act comes into force, section 6 will give Algoma University the authority to grant only those degrees. On a later date, section 6 may be amended to allow the University to grant any bachelor degree in an arts or science program. At an even later date, section 6 may be further amended to give the University complete authority over the degrees it chooses to grant.
