Join TDS and CBA-IL Manitoba for an in-person continuing professional development session featuring Stephanie Wang and Jeffrey Weiss of Steptoe, a Lex Mundi member firm based in Washington, D.C.

As shifting geopolitical priorities reshape global trade, businesses and their advisors continue to face increasing uncertainty surrounding tariffs, sanctions, supply chains, foreign investment, and cross-border transactions. Stephanie and Jeff will discuss the latest developments in U.S. trade policy, the potential impact on Canadian organizations, and practical strategies for identifying and managing emerging legal and commercial risks.
A complimentary reception in the Northern Lights Lounge at TDS will follow. Attendees are encouraged to register early as space is limited. Please RSVP to the Manitoba Bar Association online (link above).
