This is a guide to the law governing the procurement of construction and other services in Canada. Rarely discussed and analyzed together, this text reviews, both the court (including the 2010 Supreme Court decision of Tercon Contractors) and tribunal decisions, as well as trade agreement rules on fair procurement. It also contains a detailed discussion of many of the current, unresolved issues in competitive bidding. This work provides a step-by-step analysis of the law at each stage of the procurement process to help you avoid the pitfalls.
