Under the current rules, you are not. The limit for a consumer proposal is $75,000 in debts excluding the mortgage(s) on your principal residence.
You can file a Division I proposal – there is no limit on the debts that this type of proposal can deal with. Or if you wait a month or two the threshold for consumer proposals is about to be raised to $250,000 – before you ask, no, we don’t know exactly when that will happen, but it is expected very soon.
