OBA-JUST Magazine celebrates food law conference co-organized by GSJ&Co.
Annie Chu captured her experience at The Future of Food Law in Canada and conference content partners Devour! Food Film Festival, which Glenford and Shannon co-organized with Professor Jamie Baxter (here's a link to our podcast on food law education) and Jessica Rose, in an article for the Ontario Bar Association's JUST Magazine this month:
“From the regulation of truffles and breast milk, to the private sector traceability of bagged spinach, this conference was a unique forum for connect, share ideas, identify common needs and resources, and look towards the future. While it seems that food law in Canada is only just beginning to define itself and the role of its participants, at the very least, this conference served as the first step towards a more holistic approach.”
Glenford and Shannon are proud to be at the forefront of food law in Canada, the first national food law conference in Canada last fall at Schulich School of Law and are working hard to ensure that the 2017 edition of the conference, hosted by the University of Ottawa Faculty of Law, will be as successful as the first.
