Mr. Levitt was also quoted in the article, “The Franchise Law Minefield,” that appeared in the issue. The article focused on the complex and challenging legal environment in Canada for franchisors and how the Canadian and provincial governments are trying to alleviate those concerns. Mr. Levitt commented that Canada is starting to see some progress when it comes to franchise regulations and laws. “In a general sense, we are finally getting a significant body of case law that provides franchisors and franchisees with some guidance,” he told Lexpert.
