1. This Code sets out the duties to be discharged by every agrologist towards the public, clients and the profession.

The obligations of the agrologists under the Agrologists Act (chapter A-12), the Professional Code (chapter C-26) and the regulations made for their application are not changed or reduced by the fact that an agrologist practises the profession within a partnership or joint-stock company.

In that respect, the agrologist must in particular ensure that the obligations towards the partnership or joint-stock company of which the agrologist is the director or officer are not incompatible with the obligations towards the client.
