4.4 Deal or No Deal: Procurement in the Public Sector

Tuesday, August 19, 11:00 – 12:30

The Courts and CITT have been active recently in releasing decisions related to public sector procurement (Double N Earthmovers v. Edmonton, Toronto Transit Commission v. Gottardo, and Stanco Projects Ltd. v. BC to name just a few). Given that the public sector is one of the largest procurers of goods and services across all industries, this topic will be of interest to both public and private practitioners. Panelists will discuss an owner’s obligations to bidders, bid compliance, “bid shopping” and much more.

Moderator:
Julie Frederickson, Manitoba Floodway Authority (Winnipeg)

Speakers:
Darrell Lopushinsky, City of Edmonton Law Branch (Edmonton)
Susan Clarke, Public Works & Government Services Canada (Gatineau)
