An article about Insolvent Estates (from BC):

Instead of administering the estate yourself, you may apply to court for permission to have a trustee in bankruptcy appointed under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, R.S.C., 1985, c. B-3. The trustee in bankruptcy would then assume responsibility for distributing the assets among the creditors

In an insolvent estate, a court application could be made to determine how to divide the estate amongst the creditors, and discharging the executor.
