PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE

CHAPTER 2 ORDINANCES OF THE YUKON TERRITORY 1968 (Second Session) AN ORDINANCE TO MODIFY THE RULE AGAINST PERPETUITIES (Assented to April 4th, 1968) The Commissioner of the Yukon Territory, by and with the advice and consent of the Council of the said Territory, enacts as follows:

SHORT TITLE. 1. This Ordinance may be cited as the Perpetuities Ordinance. 2.

INTERPRETATION. In this Ordinance, (a) "court" means the Police Magistrate's Court or the Territorial Court; (b) "in being" means living or en ventre sa mere; (c) "limitation" includes any provision whereby property or any interest in property, is disposed of, created or conferred. CHAP. 2

Short title. Interpre· tation. 3. The rule of law lmown as the rule against Rule ag!,i~81 t 't' t' t h f 11 ff t t 'd d pel"lletu,t,ea perpe UI les con mues 0 ave u e ec excep as prOVI e to continue in this Ordinance, saving. 4. No limitation creating a contingent interest in real or personal property shall be treated as or declared to be invalid as violating the rule against perpetuities by reason only of the fact that there is a possibility of such interest vesting beyond the perpetuity period. 5.

(1) Every contingent interest in real or personal property that is capable of vesting within or beyond the perpetuity period is presumptively valid until actual events establish, 75 Poaeibllity of vesting beyond period. Presumption of valld,t" and "Wait BDd Seen doctrine.

CHAP. 2 PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE Geoeral power of appointment. Special power of appoiot· ment. etc. Application to determioe validity. Interim income. (

a) that the interest is incapable of vesting within the perpetuity period, in which case the interest, unless validated by the applica­ tion of sections 9 or 10, shall be treated as void or declared to be void; or (

b) that the interest is incapable of vesting be­ yond the perpetuity period, in which case the interest shall be treated as valid or declared to be valid.

(2) A limitation conferring a general power of appointment, which but for this

section would have been void on the ground that it might become exercisable beyond the perpetuity period, is presumptively valid until such time, if any, as it becomes established by actual events that the power cannot be exercised within the perpetuity period.

(3) A limitation conferring any power, option or other right, other than general power of appointment, which but for this

section would have been void on the ground that it might be exercised beyond the perpetuity period, is presumptively valid, and shall be declared or treated as void for remoteness only if, and so far as, the right is not fully exercised within the perpetuity period. 6.

(1) An executor or a trustee of any property or any person interested under, or on the validity or invalidity of, an interest in such property may at any time apply to the court for a declaration as to the validity or invalidity with respect to the rule against perpetuities of an interest in that property, and the court may on such application make an order as to the validity or invalidity of an interest based on the facts existing and the events that have occurred at the time of the application and having regard to sections 9 and 10.

(2) Pending the treatment or declaration of a pre­ sumptively valid interest within the meaning of subsection (1) of

section 5 as valid or invalid, the income arising from such interest and not otherwise disposed of shall be treated as income arising from a valid contingent interest, and any uncertainty whether the limitation will ultimately prove to be void for remoteness shall be disregarded. 76

PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE 7.

(1) Except as provided in

section 10, subsection (3) of

section 14 and subsections (2) and (3) of

section 16, the perpetuity period shall be measured in the same way as if this Ordinance had not been passed, but, in measuring that period by including a life in being when the interest was created, no life shall be included other than that of any person whose life, at the time the interest was created, limits or is a relevant factor that limits in some way the period within which the conditions for vesting of the interest may occur.

(2) A life that is a relevant factor in limiting the time for vesting of any part of a gift to a class shall be a relevant life in relation to the entire class.

(3) Where there is no life satisfying the conditions of subsection (1), the perpetuity period is twenty-one years. 8.

(1) Where, in any proceeding respecting the rule against perpetuities, a question arises that turns on the ability of a person to have a child at some future time, then, (

a) it shall be presumed: (

i) that a male is able to have a child at the age of fourteen years or over, but not under that age, and (ii) that a female is able to have a child at the age of twelve years or over, but not under that age or over the age of fifty-five years, but, (

b) in the case of a living person, evidence may be given to show that he or she will or will not be able to have a child at the time in question. CHAP. 2 Measurement of perpetuity period. Idem. Idem.

(2) Subject to subsection (3), where any question is Idem decided in relation to a limitation of interest by treating a person as able or unable to have a child at a particular time, then he or she shall be so treated for the purpose of any question that arises concerning the rule against perpetu­ ities in relation to the same limitation or interest notwith­ standing that the evidence on which the finding of ability or inability to have a child at a particular time as proved by subsequent events to have been erroneous. 77

CHAP. 2 Idem. Idem. Reduction of age. Exclusion oC class members to avoid re· moteness. PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE

(3) Where a question is decided by treating a person as unable to have a child at a particular time and such person subsequently has a child or children at that time, the court may make such order as it sees fit to protect the right that such child or children would have had in the property concerned as if such question had not been decided and as if such child or children would, apart from such decision, have been entitled to a right in the property not in itself invalid by the application of the rule against perpetu­ ities as modified by this Ordinance.

(4) The possibility that a person may at any time have a child by adoption, legitimation or by means other than procreating or giving birth to a child shall not be considered in deciding any question that turns on the ability of a person to have a child at some particular time, but, if a person does subsequently have a child or children by such means, then subsection (3) applies to such child or children. 9.

(1) Where a limitation creates an interest in real or personal property by reference to the attainment by any person or persons of a specified age exceeding twenty-one years, and actual events existing at the time the interest was created or at any subsequent time established, (

a) that the interest would, but for this section, be void as incapable of vesting within the perpetuity period; but (

b) that it would not be void if the specified age had been twenty-one years, the limitation shall be read as if, instead of referring to the age specified, it had referred to the age nearest the age specified that would, if specified instead, have prevented the interest from being so void.

(2) Where the inclusion of any persons, being poten­ tial members of a class or unborn persons who at birth would become members or potential members of the class, prevents subsection (1) from operating to save a limita­ tion creating an interest in favour of a class of person from being void for remoteness, such persons shall be excluded from the class for all purposes of the limitation, and the limitation takes effect accordingly. 78

PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE

(3) Where a limitation creates an interest in favour of a class to which subsection (2) does not apply and actual events at the time of the creation of the interest or at any subsequent time establish that, but for this sub­ section, the inclusion of any persons, being potential mem­ bers of a class or unborn persons who at birth would become members or potential members of the class, would cause the limitation to the class to be void 'for remoteness, such persons shall be excluded from the class for all purposes of the limitation, and the limitation takes effect accordingly.

(4) For the purposes of this section, a person shall be treated as a member of a class if in his case all conditions identifying a member of the class are satisfied, and a person shall be treated as a potential member if in his case some only of those conditions are satisfied but there is a possibil­ ity that the remainder will in time be satisfied. 10.

Where any disposition is made in favour of any spouse of a person in being at the commencement of the perpetuity period, or where a limitation creates an interest in real or personal property by reference to the time of the death of the survivor of a person in being at the commence­ ment of the perpetuity period and any spouse of that person, for the purpose of validating any such disposition or limit­ ation, that but for this

section would be void as offending the rule against perpetuities as modified by this Ordinance, the spouse of such person shall be deemed to be a life in being at the commencement of the perpetuity period even though such spouse was not born until after that time. 11.

(1) A limitation that, if it stood alone, would be valid under the rule against perpetuities is not invalidated by reason only that it is preceded by one or more limitations that are invalid under the rule against perpetuities, whether or not such limitation expressly or by implication takes effect after, or is subject to, or is ulterior to and dependent upon, any such invalid limitation.

(2) Where a limitation is invalid under the rule against perpetuities, any subsequent interest that, if it stood alone would be valid, shall not be prevented from be­ ing accelerated by reason only of the invalidity of the prior interest. 79 CHAP. 2 Idem.

CHAP. 2 Powers of appointment. Admioistra· ti ,'e powers or t.rustees. Application of subsection (1). Options to Require reversioDBry interests. PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE 12.

(1) For the purpose of the rule against perpetuities, a power of appointment shall be treated as a special power unless (

a) in the instrument creating the power it is expressed to be exercisable by one person only; and (

b) it could, at all times during its currency when that person is of full age and capacity, be exercised by him so as immediately to transfer to himself the whole of the interest governed by the power without the consent of any other person or compliance with any other condition, not being a formal condition relating only to the mode of exercise of the power.

(2) A power that satisfies the conditions of clauses (

a) and (

b) of subsection (1) shall, for the purpose of the rule against perpetuities, be treated as a general power.

(3) For the purpose of determining whether an appointment made under a power of appointment exercis­ able by will only is void for remoteness, the power shall be treated as a general power where it would have been so treated if excercisable by deed. 13.

(1) The rule against perpetuities does not invali­ date a power conferred on trustees or other persons to sell, lease, exchange or otherwise dispose of any property, or to do any other act, in the administration (as opposed to the distribution) of any property including, where authorized, payment to trustees or other persons of reasonable re­ muneration for their services. (2) Subsection (1) applies for the purposes of en­ abling a power to be exercised at any time after this Ordinance comes into force, notwithstanding that the power is conferred by an instrument that took effect before that time. 14.

(1) The rule against perpetuities does not apply to an option to acquire for valuable consideration an interest reversionary on the term of a lease, (

a) if the option is exercisable only by the lessee or his successors in title; and 80

PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE (

b) if it ceases to be exercisable at or before the expiration of one year following the de­ termination of the lease. CHAP. 2 (2) Subsection (1) applies to an agreement for a ~l:~~cB~t:~i~n lease as it applies to a lease, and "lessee" shall be construed (1). accordingly.

(3) In the case of all other options to acquire for valuable consideration any interest in land, the perpetuity period under the rule against perpetuities is twenty-one years, and any such option that according to its terms is exercisable at a date more than twenty-one years from the date of its creation is void on the expiry of twenty-one years from the date of its creation as between the person by whom it was made and the person to whom or in whose favour it was made and all persons claiming through either or both of them, and no remedy lies for giving effect to it or making restitution for its lack of effect. Other optioDs.

(4) The rule against perpetuities does not apply, OptionB to nor do the provisions of subsection (3) of this

section I::.e::. apply, to options to renew a lease. 15.

In the case of an easement, profit 'a prendre or other similar interest to which the rule against perpetuities may be applicable, the perpetuity period is forty years from the time of the creation of such easement, profit 'a prendre or other similar interest, and the validity or invalidity of such easement, profit 'a prendre or other similar interest, so far as remoteness is concerned, shall be determined by actual events within such forty-year period; and the ease­ ment, profit 'a prendre or other similar interest is void only for remoteness if, and to the extent that, it fails to acquire the characteristics of a present exercisable right in the servient land within the forty-year period. 16.

(1) In the case of, (

a) a possibility of reverter on the determina­ tion of a determinable fee simple; or (

b) a possibility of a resulting trust on the determination of any determinable interest in real or personal property; the rule against perpetuities as modified by this Ordinance applies in relation to the provision causing the interest to 81 Ea.ementB. p'rofitB a prendre. etc. Determinable intereBtB.

CHAP. 2 PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE be determinable as it would apply if that provision were expressed in the form of a condition subsequent giving rise on its breach to right of re-entry or an equivalent right in the case of personal property and, where the event deter­ mines the determinable interest does not occur within the perpetuity period, the provision shall be treated as void for remoteness and the determinable interest becomes an absolute interest. Idem.

(2) In the case of a possibility of reverter on the determination of a determinable fee simple, or in the case of a possibility of a resulting trust on the determination of any determinable interest in any real or personal property, or in the case of a right of re-entry following on a condition subsequent, or in the case of an equivalent right in personal property, the perpetuity period shall be measur­ ed as if the event determining the prior interest were a condition to the vesting of the subsequent interest, and failing any life in being at the time the interests were created that limits or is a relevant factor that limits in some way the period within which that event may take place, the perpetuity period is twenty-one years from the time when the interests were created.

Idem.

(3) Even though some life or lives in being may be relevant in determining the perpetuity period under sub­ section (2), the perpetuity period for the purposes of this

section shall not exceed a period of forty years from the time when the interests were created and shall be the lesser of a period of forty years and a period composed of the relevant life or lives in being and twenty-one years. Specific DOD· 17.

(1) A trust for a specific non-charitable purpose charitable trusts. that creates no enforceable equitable interest in a specific person shall be construed as a power to appoint the income or the capital, as the case may be, and, unless the trust is created for an illegal purpose or a purpose contrary to public policy, the trust is valid so long as, and to the extent that, it is exercised either by the original trustee or his successor, within a period of twenty-one years, notwith­ standing that the limitation creating the trust manifested an intention, either expressly or by implication, that the trust should or might continue for a period in excess of that period; but in the case of such a trust that is expressed to be of perpetual duration, the court may declare the limita- 82

PERPETUITIES ORDINANCE tion to be void if the court is of opinion that by so doing the result would more closely approximate the intention of the creator of the trust than the period of validity provided by this section.

(2) To the extent that the income or capital of a trust for a specific non-charitable purpose is not fully expended within a period of twenty-one years, or within any annual or other recurring period within which the the limitation creating the trust provided for the expendi. ture of all or a specified portion of the income or the capital, the person or persons, or his or their successors, who would have been entitled to the property comprised in the trust if the trust had been valid from the time of its creation, are entitled to such unexpended income or capital. 18.

The rule of law prohibiting the limitation, after a life interest to an unborn person, of an interest in land to the unborn child or other issue of an unborn person is hereby abolished, but without affecting any other rule re­ lating to perpetuities. 19. The rules of law and statutory enactments relat­ ing to perpetuities do not apply and shall be deemed never to have applied to the trusts of a plan, trust or fund established for the purpose of providing pensions, retire­ ment allowances, annuities, or sickness, death or other benefits, to employees or to their widows, dependants or other beneficiaries. 20.

Except as provided in subsection (2) of

section 13 and in

section 19, this Ordinance applies only to instru­ ments that take effect after this Ordinance comes into force, and such instruments include an instrument made in the exercise of a general or special power of appointment after this Ordinance comes into force even though the instrument creating the power took effect before this Ordinance comes into force. 83 CHAP. 2 Idem.
