Foreign investors with complex and highly sensitive merger and investment plans need to navigate Canada’s political and regulatory landscape with as little friction as possible. And Canadian investors seeking merger approvals in other jurisdictions are looking for the same smooth progress around potential obstacles. Our foreign investment team can guide you every step of the way.

With extensive experience in all aspects of foreign investment and foreign ownership reviews, including under the Investment Canada Act, we establish whether restrictions apply in your case – and if they do, we advise on the best route to securing approval. Limits on foreign ownership in Canada’s cultural, telecommunications and broadcasting sectors can be particularly challenging: we provide strategic advice on the complex interplay between cultural policies, regulations and industry innovations.

In all areas of foreign investment review, we use our long-standing government relationships and leading competition and M&A expertise to identify risks and develop creative solutions.
