I am pleased to be speaking at the Canadian Bar Association’s and Canadian Corporate Counsel Association’s upcoming CBA Canadian Legal Conference in Vancouver on a panel on August 13th: “What In-house Counsel Need to Know About Recent Competition Law Developments”. From the Canadian Bar Association and Canadian Corporate Counsel Association (CCCA):
“Canada’s competition and foreign investment laws are being enforced more vigorously than ever. The Competition Bureau has broad powers allowing them to investigate conduct that might have an anti-competitive impact on the Canadian marketplace, and investigations can involve high-stakes consequences for companies including public stigma, civil or criminal penalties, or unneeded complications arising in the middle of a strategic merger. Private and class actions are also increasingly prevalent in Canada. Hear about recent trends and learn practical tips for spotting issues and minimizing potential liability from experienced in-house and external counsel who will discuss compliance, criminal developments, private actions, mergers and advertising and marketing law developments.”
My presentation will be on recent misleading advertising law developments and trends (“Misleading Advertising Trends & Tips”), with a PowerPoint presentation and paper highlighting recent cases including Rogers, Bell, Yellow Pages, Richard v. Time and best practices for in-house counsel.
