To kick off season 5 of Disputed, hosts Ted Brook and Erin Brown sit down to discuss the changes with guests Chris Hersh, Partner and Canadian Head of Antitrust and Competition based in Toronto, and Eric Lefebvre, Partner and litigator based in Montreal.  


In addition to the changes to the Competition Act, this episode covers the current status of bills C-59 and C-56 and their compounding effects on the potential for expanded competition litigation; environmental performance claims; and why there’s still so much uncertainty in this area. Ted, Erin, Chris and Eric discuss why the changes could result in a significant uptick in litigation on competition issues, particularly where NGOs are eager to bring complaints.

From our survey:


• Issues surrounding board governance, executive compensation, conflict of interest and proxy battles have been flagged by 50% of Canadian survey respondents as something to pay attention to in 2024

• One in 10 respondents experienced ESG-related litigation last year (compared to just two percent in 2022) – a development we anticipated in our 2023 report.

• 38% of organizations are also concerned about future ESG class actions as issues such as greenwashing, diversity policies and regulatory compliance go under the microscope.


In episode three of our miniseries, hosts Ted Brook and Erin Brown draw on the expertise of Alison Babbitt, Partner, Canadian Co-Head of Responsible Business and Sustainability, and Heidi Reinhart, Partner. Together, they explore the discourse around ESG litigation risk as new regulations and policies come to the forefront. We’ll learn how various industries are impacted and why a strong base of corporate governance, transparency, and consistency can set businesses up for success.

Are all companies measured by the same degree of accountability? And how is anti-corruption legislation applied when multiple jurisdictions are involved?



The UK is strengthening its anti-corruption legislation, making significant changes that will introduce a statutory test for corporate criminal liability, introducing a new strict liability offence of failure to prevent fraud, and expanding the investigative powers of the UK’s Serious Fraud Office.
