This webcast will discuss the consequences of the elimination of investor-state arbitration for Canada and Canadian investors following the enactment of CUSMA, as well as strategies for protecting investments or existing claims. We will discuss how cross-border investors should review and consider existing investment claims and how future investors should carefully consider the structure of their investments to maximize available protections and dispute resolution mechanism.
