Can a claim of lien be filed against land owned by the provincial government?


Generally, yes. However, the Act specifically exempts highways and forest service roads. In addition, the improvement must be at the express request of the provincial government as the deemed authorization provisions of the act don’t apply to land owned by the provincial government.
