Canada-US Law Institute Annual Conference

APRIL 14-16, 2011

The Annual Conference has served as the premier forum for addressing the issues confronting the Canada-U.S. relationship. For nearly three decades, the annual conference has united members of the respective governments, corporate leaders, legal practitioners, scholars, and the media in one forum to address issues from security and trade, to energy and the environment. Along the way, the event has fostered the development of longstanding professional linkages and personal friendships on each side of the border.

This year's conference will address the Canada-US energy relationship. It is the only event that will examine the relationship from a bi-national perspective; provide a comprehensive review of all sectors; examine policy implications at the federal, state, and provincial levels; and discuss funding initiatives that will assist companies in securing the capital needed to develop these projects.
Distinguished Participants include:
Hon. Gary Doer
Ambassador of Canada to the United States

Hon. David Jacobson
Ambassador of the United States to Canada

Bruce Carson
Executive Director, Canada School of Energy and the Environment
University of Calgary
former Senior Policy Advisor to the Prime Minister

Carl Bauer
former Director, National Energy Technology Laboratory
U.S. Department of Energy
