Michael Woods, Senior Partner, and Catherine Walsh, Legal Counsel at Woods, LaFortune LLP, are pleased to announce that they will be panelists at the Asian Canadian Law Students 11th Annual Conference, taking place on Saturday February 21, 2015 in Toronto. This national law student conference is organized by the University of Toronto’s Asia Law Society in conjunction with the Asian Law Students’ Society of Osgoode Hall Law School. The event is a fantastic forum, bringing together law students and lawyers, and providing an opportunity to discuss career paths, recent legal developments, and ways in which positive contributions can be made to the Asian community in Canada.
Michael and Catherine will be participating in the conference’s Canada-China FIPA Panel, and will be discussing its implications for businesses and investors in both Canada and China. The panel will touch on the topic of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) between Canada and China, Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) provisions, as well as potential implications with First Nations.
