A guy comes in to ask about a Consumer Proposal. He owes Amex $15,000. They have not contacted him in eight years. Does he have to include it on his list of liabilities?
The question is whether a debt barred by the Statute of Limitations should be included on a list of liabilities at all. So, is the debt still owed if it cannot be collected? Can the claim be proven in a bankruptcy or consumer proposal?
The short answer appears to be that a statute-barred claim should still be included: the debt is not extinguished, it’s just not collectible.
