Curious about competition law but not sure where to start? Join MACLA for Canadian Competition Law 101, an introductory session covering the foundations of competition law in Canada and the work of the Competition Bureau.

The session, delivered by representatives of the Competition Bureau, will begin with a brief overview of the history and development of Canadian competition law, followed by an introduction to the four key areas of the Competition Act (mergers, criminal cartels, civil reviewable conduct, deceptive marketing).

The event will conclude with an open Q&A, to give attendees the chance to ask questions about competition law, enforcement, and careers in the field.

Speaker: Matthew Chiasson, Senior Advisor at the Competition Bureau | Paul Klippenstein, Senior Counsel at the Competition Bureau
