Reseller - Channel Partner Agreement (Canada) by OLL
This template is for a channel arrangement in which the Reseller introduces customers to, or sells on behalf of, the Principal — typically agency-like or referral-based, with the Principal contracting directly with the end customer. It is not suitable for an arrangement where the Reseller instead buys products and resells them on its own account, at its own risk — see the distribution-agreement template for that arrangement instead. It is not suitable for use in Quebec. This document comes from OLL's library of vetted legal templates

SaaS Terms of Service (Canada) by OLL
This template is click-wrap terms of service for a self-serve SaaS product, sold to consumers or small businesses who accept by clicking "I Agree," creating an account, or using the Service — not by countersigning a negotiated agreement. It is not suitable for a negotiated enterprise deal with its own Order Form, MSA, DPA and SLA; that is a separate template (saas-subscription-b2b, not yet built). It is not suitable for use in Quebec. This document comes from OLL's library of vetted legal templates

Shareholders' Agreement (Canada) by OLL
This template is for the shareholders of a private corporation incorporated federally or in a Canadian common-law province or territory. It is not suitable for a public corporation, and it is not suitable for use in Quebec. This template assumes the Corporation already exists and has issued Shares. It does not cover incorporation itself. It assumes a small number of Shareholders who are all parties to this Agreement — it is not drafted for a corporation with shareholders who are not party to it.

It explicitly distinguishes the relationship from employment to manage tax and liability risks under Canada Revenue Agency standards.

Frequently asked questions

A template isn't binding on its own - like any contract, it becomes binding once it's properly completed and signed. Templates in our curated library are professionally drafted for US or UK law; review any template before you sign it.

Templates in our curated library are professionally drafted for US or UK law. The wider library comes from the GitLaw community and public sources - a solid starting point, but check any template fits your situation before you rely on it.

Mostly US and UK law. Some templates use general commercial terms that work across jurisdictions, and many note which law they're written for.

It depends on the situation. Templates work well for routine business agreements. For anything involving significant money, complex IP, employment, or areas you're unsure about, it's worth getting professional advice before you sign. GitLaw provides templates and tools, not legal advice.

Open any template in GitLaw and describe the change you want in the chat — 'make clause 4 mutual' or 'add a 30-day notice period', for example. GitLaw drafts the revised language and shows it as a suggested edit. You accept, reject, or keep editing from there.

Yes. Upload a Word, PDF, or Markdown file and GitLaw will open it in the editor. You can review, edit, or chat with GitLaw about it the same way you would with any template from the library.
