No.  I'm simply asking what form of legal entity it is, if any, and 
whether it has a bank account.

The answers to those questions will likely shed some light on the reason 
why the then-Treasurer of some years past was keen to centralise any and 
all chapter monies in the AUUG Inc. account.

As I recall, there was an undertaking to make money available for chapter 
activities, but I haven't heard a lot out of CAUUG in recent times, which 
likely explains why there hasn't been a lot of disbursement going on.

Meanwhile, the organisation it not what it once was, and while we've tried 
to keep a lid on the operating costs, there are some.  From memory we took 
a significant loss on the 2006 conference (last year's was most even, I 
suspect) and right now I suspect we're pretty much treading water.

Anyway, as Chris said, the keys to the kingdom can be yours without too 
much hassle, so if you're really excited about it...
