The following is taken from a legal Agreement between “Createscape Waterloo Region” and “The Corporation of the Township of Wilmot”, signed by the mayor, clerk and Createscape. It is dated May 5, 2016.

“The Prime Ministers Statues Project was initiated by residents of Waterloo Region with a view to creating statues of each Prime Minister of Canada as part of Canada’s celebration of the 150th anniversary of Confederation.”

“The Corporation of the Township of Wilmot is interested in accepting the transfer of the statues and associated research, intellectual property and other assets from Createscape Waterloo Region so that the public benefit in these assets may be optimized by The Corporation of The Township of Wilmot.”

“The Township hereby agrees to accept the transfer of ownership and title of the statues and associated research, intellectual property and other assets as noted in clause 1. It is understood and agreed that (I) Createscape shall transfer all of its interests in the PM Statues and associated research, intellectual property and other assets, and (ii) the Township will be able to use such interests as the sole owner and holder of such interests.”

“Createscape shall, at its cost, install the PM Statues following its proposal to the Township, subject to any changes that are mutually acceptable during the term of this agreement. Createscape shall acknowledge, and be responsible for the costs of any such acknowledgements or activities, of the project benefactors, funding partners and donors.”

“The Township shall oversee the development and ongoing operation of an educational program that is accessible to the public concerning the PM Statues and the history of the prime ministers depicted in the PM Statues, their importance to Canada and their times, that is of a quality that meets public expectations. The Township will not be obligated to assume any costs incurred by other parties that may be involved in or contributing to the content or platform for the educational programming.”

“This Agreement shall come into effect on the day of signing. It shall remain in effect until the PM Statues Project is deemed complete by the mutual agreement of both parties. Either party reserves the right to terminate the contract without cause, in whole or in part, upon giving ninety (90) days written notice.”
