There is no mandated naming of the sub-divisions of bylaws. In the context of organizational bylaws, the terms "articles" and "sections" are often used to denote different levels of structural hierarchy.
To simplify terminology and avoid confusion with the use 'Articles' we are only using the term Section for each part of the bylaw and the term Sub-section for an index sub-part of a section.
For example the following will be called Section 2
2. Interpretation
In the interpretation of this By-law, words in the singular include the plural and vice versa, words in one gender include all genders, and "person" includes an individual, body corporate, partnership, trust and unincorporated organization.
Other than as specified above, words and expressions defined in the Act have the same meanings when used in these By-laws.
In the following, the highlighted line will be referred to as Sub-section 17.b.1
17. Termination of membership
a. All memberships in the corporation cease to exist when the corporation is liquidated and dissolved under the Act.
b. the membership in the corporation for Organization Members is terminated when:
1. the member ceases to exist or resigns;
2. the member is expelled or their membership is otherwise terminated in accordance with the articles or By-laws.
The term sub-section will apply to any sub-part of a section. Please do not use the term 'sub-sub-section' for the above.
