The CBA National Competition Law Section is anticipating another active and exciting year.

The CBA has made a number of submissions so far this year that will be of interest to lawyers practising in the business and corporate area.

The CBA held its 99th annual meeting on Thursday, Aug. 17 at the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth in Montreal, 121 years after a group of lawyers from across the country gathered in that city to lay the foundation of a national association for the legal profession.

A highlight of the President’s Dinner is always the announcement of award winners. This year the winners of the Walter Owen Book Prize and the President’s Award were celebrated at the dinner in Montreal.
