Join us for an engaging panel discussion tailored for members of the Association of Corporate Counsel focused on key developments and trends in class action litigation.

Key topics will include:

  • Current class actions landscape in Canada:
    • Where are new class actions being commenced?
    • In what areas (e.g. product liability, privacy, competition, securities, etc.)?
    • What emerging class actions are we seeing and expecting (e.g., AI, ESG, etc.)?
  • Certification trends and defence strategies
    • What is (and is not) being certified? 
    • What are current strategies to resist certification entirely or in part, including through pre-certification motions?
  • Key tips for in-house counsel defending class actions.

We look forward to providing actionable insights to help you stay ahead of the curve and protect your organization’s interests.
