Well it appears that the Canadian Revenue Agency Income Tax Information Circular establishes a retention period of 2 years after the corporation dissolves as the retention requirement for certain corporations.  See appendix in reference below.

Please note that I am not an attorney and that applicability of this regulation or any other regulation should be reviewed by your counsel.

Subject: Re: Who is keeping General Ledger and Sub Ledgers permanently?

I've seen similar ("IND," "PERM," "LOC") retentions recommended for GL documents, but don't know the rationale. Annual financial reports, yes, but not the ledgers.

One company's schedule that I worked on retained them just like the rest of general accounting: CY+8.
