What kind of a Land Titles registration system do we have in Alberta?

Back to Top

This system is named after a land titles registration system created by Robert Torrens, of South Australia in the 1850s. It was first used in Canada in the Colony of Vancouver Island in 1861 and in the province of British Columbia in 1869. The Torrens system has been in use in Alberta since 1887.
