Message From the Canada Co-Chairs

Welcome to the Canada Committee webpage!

Our Committee is involved with issues related to Canada, particularly U.S. - Canada relations. As such, the Committee presents programs dealing with the complex and overlapping web of legal, economic and political regimes in the two countries. The Committee's agenda is to provide an opportunity to discuss Canadian legal developments of importance to ABA members and to promote dialogue between Section members about comparative and international law issues. The Committee leadership welcomes your participation in the Committee's agenda and can be contacted via email: Kenneth Nelson Frankel, Randall Hofley, Paul M. Lalonde, and Brian D. Wallace.
