The Affidavit of Confirmation is a crucial legal document used throughout Canadian jurisdictions when formal verification of facts or circumstances is required under oath. This document type is commonly utilized in various contexts, including court proceedings, business transactions, and administrative matters where sworn testimony is necessary. The affidavit must be executed before a commissioner of oaths or notary public and must comply with both federal and provincial legislation, including the Canada Evidence Act and provincial Rules of Civil Procedure. It typically contains numbered paragraphs of factual statements, may include referenced exhibits, and concludes with a formal jurat. The document's admissibility and effectiveness depend on proper execution and compliance with jurisdictional requirements.
