More than ever in this economic environment, neither the Bureau nor businesses can wait for the outcome of lengthy competition litigation. Will interlocutory injunction proceedings become more frequent? Five years following its introduction before the Competition Tribunal, how successful has mediation been to shorten merger and non-merger contested cases? Will the new Tribunal expedited proceeding process bring significant changes? In the U.S., following the DOJ’s groundbreaking success in obtaining a divestiture in the Novelis/Aleris transaction, will private-style arbitration be used more frequently? Join our panel for a discussion on these developments from both sides of the border.
Moderator:
Antonio Di Domenico, Fasken Martineau DuMoulin LLP
Speakers:
The Honourable Justice Denis Gascon, Federal Court and Chairperson of the Competition Tribunal
Debbie Johnston, Senior General Counsel & Executive Director, Competition Bureau Legal Services
Linda Plumpton, Torys LLP
Amanda Reeves, Latham & Watkins LLP
The webinar will include a Q&A portion.
