"24A. |
(1.) |
A right-of-way over land for the conveyance of water, drainage, disposal of
sewage, or other purpose, created by an instrument
executed by the registered owner of the land in favour of
a municipality, shall constitute an interest in the land
in favour of the municipality, notwithstanding the
absence in the instrument of words of annexation of the
benefit of the right-of-way to any land of the municipality.

An interest in land
in favour of a municipality constituted as provided in

No person who executes an
instrument whereby such a right-of-way as is referred to

he has ceased to be owner of the land.
|
|
" |
(4.) |
This section shall be
retroactive in its application and shall apply to all
instruments of the nature described in subsection (1)
registered before as well as after the enactment of this
