The securities regulatory authorities in Canadian jurisdictions issued Regulation 41-101 to establish the general prospectus requirements for the distribution of securities under the Securities Act. The regulation defines key terms such as accredited investor, junior issuer, and restricted security, while specifying the content and format requirements for long form, short form, and ETF facts documents. It also outlines the rules for marketing materials, road shows, and the use of preliminary and final prospectus notices across different jurisdictions.
