    I looked up the Statute of Limitations act in Ontario.It states that after Jan 01 2004 the Statute of Limitations on debt in Ontario changed from 6 years to two years, from the last day the debt was acknowledged.

    If the debt was incurred prior to the change, I believe the 6 years would still apply. If it was incurred after the change, then I believe the 2 years would be accurate.

    You may want to check with an attorney in your area for certain verification.
