Case Analysis : Canadian International Trade Tribunal

Casturn hired a consulting company that possibly didn’t have the best interest of Casturn as its core motivation. The consulting company was paid on POTENTIAL cost savings and identification instead of a results oriented contract. Due to this structure, it became about quantity of parts that can be included in the bid instead of identifying the top say twenty percent of parts that, if managed well, could have yielded both companies a lucrative cost savings in the resourcing effort. In addition, the consulting company exited the process after the initial stages giving no one accountability to carry the resourcing effort to fruition.

Over the course of the agency agreement a prospective buyer inspected the property but didn’t make an offer before the agency agreement expired. The legal issue that arises comes after the agency agreement expires.

Recently, due to the Carter v. Canada case in 2012, euthanasia, or medically assisted dying, was legalized in Canada. And, with a topic like euthanasia, people’s rights and freedoms become called into question both with, doctors and patients, specifically, freedom of religion, as well as freedom of expression and the life, liberty, and security of the person. Though the case occurred in British Columbia, the province of Ontario created a regulation stating that if a doctor refuses to assist their patients in dying, they must refer them to another doctor who would or, they would face possible disciplinary action. One of the main concerns that arose with this decision was religious doctors arguing that even having to provide referrals go against

Procurement by public entities is guided by primary law principles of transparency, equal treatment and non-discrimination, procurement laws sets up an extensive legal framework regarding the procurement of work, supply and service contracts. There are two main reasons for the use of specific procedures i.e. why contracting authorities do not just negotiate or simply buy from the closest supplier. First, it provides for more public accountability and therefore less cases of corruption practices. Additionally, tendering procedures aim to ensure the best value for money by making it necessary for suppliers to act highly competitive. As a result, market mechanisms will help in facilitating the best possible practices. In situations where market mechanisms are not effective, tender procedures might lose their effectiveness as well. If for example there is lack of competition due to certain complexities or as a result of lower bidder interest, negotiations with just one or two suppliers may be the most efficient manner to handle the process. Therefore, we discuss the inherent advantages and disadvantages of sealed bidding and contracting by negotiation as procedural frameworks for tendering.

The Canadian fradistat industry consists of four companies: Acme Ltd., Beaver Ltd., Canco Ltd., and Deeco Ltd. Though the industry is growing, it needs highly skilled workers where the products cannot be replicated with the current technology but the company focuses on local markets.

The federal Trade Commission was created on September 26, 1914 when President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Trade Commission Act into law. The FTC’s goal is to protect consumers, maintain competition, and advance performance. The FTC focuses on the promotion element of marketing or the advertising aspect. The federal law states that any advertisement must be truthful and when it applies be backed by scientific evidence. The FTC enforces this federal law and in a recent case where the FTC charged Fortune Hi- Tech Marketing with making deceptive claims. The Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing Company was misleading people about how much money they could earn by working for the company. The company agreed to settle the lawsuit and provided partial refunds.

Abstract: This paper evaluates a request for proposal (RFP) from Homeland Security Department. It examines the RFP to determine whether it aligns with standard government bid solicitations.

Bombardier Inc. is Canada based manufacturer of air and ground mobility solutions. Firm’s operational activity can be split into 4 units: Bombardier Transportation (BT), Bombardier Aerostructures and Engineering Services (BAES), Bombardier Commercial Aircraft (BCA) and Bombardier Business Aircraft (BBA). Firm’s 2014 performance has been weak, the firm reported USD -1,260 million net losses. However, it is important to note that the firm’s recent troubles are mainly associated with firm’s aerial divisions rather than Bombardier Transportation. It is fair to say that Bombardier’s current vulnerable position was caused by firm’s undue attention to its CSeries jets, designed to compete with Boing’s and Airbus’s smaller commercial jets. Constant delays and cost overruns has damaged Bombardier’s other divisions. Bombardier Business Aircraft lost its leading market position in private jet business to Gulfstream. In addition, the firm has been forced to postpone development of Learjet 85, which in long-term will damage BBA’s private jet backlog.

Legal precedence is the justice’s reason for making the decisions that they do. (Knight, Epstein, 1996.) It is a decision that becomes the basis or bias for similar cases. (Bohm, 2012). Stare Decisis is to stand by other cases or to go with a decision from another case. Lawyers and legal teams spend many hours referencing and researching cases that have set precedences for crimes they are defending. By doing this they can persuade judges to rule in their favor because of cases that have already been determined or by Stare Decisis. Such cases as Roe vs. Wade or Brown vs. The Board of Education are precedent cases where the judges ruled and many other defendants with similar cases have won because of these decisions. Although all of the cases that are similar can not win because of these cases it does give their attorney’s grounds to fight and a good legal defense.
