Do you want to be at the forefront of Cannabis Law? As an estimated $30 billion industry, cannabis is transforming the Canadian marketplace and legal landscape. Since its legalization we have been inundated with M&A activity, IPOs, new retail outlets and cross-border activity, as this nascent industry takes root. All of this action presents a new field of opportunity for lawyers whether practicing in a small, medium, large or in-house environment, and regardless of your area of practice. Hear from this expert faculty on the nuances of cannabis law, how it affects your practice areas and how to enter this sector with confidence. This unique program will examine and explore:
