Cross-border Franchising
US franchisors moving into Canada face challenges, including language, disclosure and provincial statutes, as well as a recent court decision expanding the interpretation of what it means to be a party to a franchise agreement.
Framework of Opportunity
Canada’s new framework on clean growth and climate change is designed to stimulate the economy and fulfill pledges to reduce emissions and adapt to climate-change issues.
Open Doors to Investment
New developments emphasize the Canadian government’s interest in easing the way for foreign investors.
Trade Uncertainty
The future of US-Canada cross-border trade remains uncertain, but both economies are well integrated, and there’s increasingly unified political action and lobbying by businesses on either side of the border.
