We recently launched this year’s edition of our Dentons’ Pick of Canadian Regulatory Trends to Watch. In this annual series, Dentons’ team of leading regulatory lawyers provide their perspective on the trends that will define 2023, including in the areas of energy, climate change and the environment, telecommunications, health, foreign investment review, trade, ESG (environmental, social and governance) disclosure, consumer products and administrative law.
