R茅sum茅 et informations
[En anglais seulement] The Trans-Pacific Partnership is one of a series of major new trade agreements (CETA between Canada and the EU, and the TTIP between the USA and the EU) which Canada may join or which may have an important impact on Canada. Two of the most controversial chapters of the TPP cover Intellectual Property Rights and the Protection of Foreign Investment.
With a view to promoting understanding of the TPP in the business, legal and academic communities, the 缅北强奸 Centre for Intellectual Property Law together with the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI) is organizing a half-day symposium devoted to the analysis of these two chapters.
Canada will be invited to ratify the TPP in 2016. It is important that Canadians understand the decision that must be taken by the Federal and Provincial governments.
A request for CLE accreditation has been made to the Quebec Bar. Anyone interested in attending this symposium should register with sharon.webb [at] mcgill.ca.
