The Real Property Act provides that any statements set out in a document, the form of which has been approved for use under that Act by the Registrar-General, and signed by the party making that statement, has the same validity as an oath, affidavit, affirmation or statutory declaration made under The Manitoba Evidence Act. The Schedule (Form 16.1) is such a form, and accordingly, the completion and signing of it has the same effect as if the evidence contained therein was given in an oath, affidavit, affirmation or statutory declaration by the signatory.
