Managing Risks of Tariffs in Construction

Description: On April 4, 2025, further tariffs are set to be imposed by the United States on certain Canadian goods being exported into the US. In response, both the federal and provincial governments have indicated that they will respond with further tariffs on American goods entering
Canada.  Tariffs, and the uncertainty of tariffs, will have continuing direct and indirect impacts on the cost of construction in Canada.  Accordingly, the need to understand and prepare for the risk of tariffs is a new reality for construction participants in Ontario.  In this Webinar, lawyers from Kennaley Construction Law will discuss how to manage the risk and impacts of tariffs under both current and future contracts. 

This Webinar is part of a series in which we offer free 1 hour seminars every Tuesday April 1, 2025, from 8:30 – 9:30 am, on a variety of timely issues and topics.  Our goal is to provide focused and practical information, and to conclude each session on the hour with additional time then set aside for questions and discussion for those that want to stay behind.  We hope to see you there!
