Summary:"Québec was the first Canadian province to adopt class actions as a legal procedure, and while the other provinces have followed Québec's lead, class actions in that jurisdiction remain unique as they are governed by the tenets of civil law, not common law. This new publication, The Québec Class Action: A Roadmap, is a useful primer that will enable in-house counsel and practitioners both inside and outside of Canada to navigate Québec's complex class action system with greater confidence and ease."--pub. desc.
