OBA International LAW PROGRAM | Original Program Date: September 27, 2017

Despite global economic downturns and shifts in trade policies, Canadian corporations are increasingly active in the international arena. Any company intending to commence trade with a foreign partner should request advice from legal counsel concerning the requirements when importing into Canada. Understanding the needs of Canadian exporters who access a foreign market is equally important to legal counsel as well. The coming into force of the Comprehensive Economic Trade Agreement (CETA) will provide a tremendous opportunity for the Canadian economy. To put it boldly, Canadian goods and services will access 27 markets, some of which are among the most sophisticated economies, with a total of 440 million consumers.

Join our expert panel for an informative discussion on the basics of import requirements, export assistance, and the opportunities or challenges provided by the implementation of CETA. Register now to be part of this timely discussion!
