SUMMARY:Canadian Class Action Defense: Practice and Strategy
DESCRIPTION:No Major Canadian Company is Immune from the Risks of a Class
 Action\n
 There has been a dramatic increase in the number of class actions
 in Canada over the past few years. The exposure is large and it
 is increasing. It comes from shareholder rights claims\, high
 profile cases in all sorts of manufacturing sectors and against
 financial institutions. And now\, you can add employment and
 privacy cases to the list as well. As of June 27\, 2012\, the
 Ontario Court of Appeal has allowed overtime employment cases to
 be tried as class actions\, a major new development that will
 have far-reaching consequences for the Canadian business
 community. When you add all of the huge new liabilities for
 corporate executives and directors of Canadian companies\, the
 situation is quite serious.\n
