International Encyclopaedia of Laws: Cyber Law

The introduction of new digital information and communications technologies has given birth to a new legal domain, commonly called Information and Communication Technology Law or, more fashionably, Cyber Law.

Practically every country in the world has issued specific legislation or developed case law in this area. The domain has acquired sufficient stability to fit into a common structure and a logical consequence of this evolution is the publication of an International Encyclopaedia of Cyber Law. The initial volume contains information about cyber laws in Australia, Hong Kong, Cyprus, Greece, Ireland, Japan, UK, Portugal, South Africa and Spain. Other countries will be incorporated as the work matures. As well as national monographs, it includes monographs on supranational and international cyber law issues.

Disability Insurance and Other Living Benefits, 3rd Edition

The 1990’s witnessed the end of job creation in the sectors that historically purchased disability insurance. A new era has begun: roughly 1 million contract workers have emerged. They are found in almost all industries and occupations. As diverse as the general public – there is an equal number of men and women, many highly educated, others not, with wide-ranging earnings levels and all in need of disability and other healthcare benefits.

Insurers have responded by unbundling disability insurance and expanding their offerings to include critical illness, health, drug, dental, travel, and other classless, non- income based products.

The author, Jacqueline Figas, looks at disability insurance and other living benefits in the context of the realities faced in today’s challenging work and lifestyle environment.

Included in this edition:

  • Health benefits planning for pre and post-retirement years
  • Traditional products and coverage for specialized markets
  • Insuring “temps” and “independent contractors”
  • Critical illness insurance
  • Private health and dental insurance
  • Checklists, charts and other planning tools

Jacqueline is a benefits consultant through her company, Health Assured Financial Group, and has over 30 years of experience in health benefits. She is a noted speaker and author on seniors’ issues and benefits planning for an aging clientele.

She is a Chartered Life Underwriter, a Registered Health Underwriter, and an Elder Planning Counselor, and is on the faculty of Seneca College where she educates on a range of aging issues including both health and social aspects of aging.

She is the author of the Long Term Care Insurance training module produced by ADVOCIS under their Registered Health Underwriter (RHU) Designation Program. Her published works through CCH Canadian Limited include “The Aging Client and Long-Term Care Issues” and “Disability Insurance and Other Living Benefits”.

Archived Webinar: Conflicts of Interest: Professional Duties and Best Practices for In-House Counsel

A lawyer’s duty to avoid conflicts of interest is an important aspect of the duty of loyalty that lawyers owe to their clients. For Canadian in-house counsel, the duty to avoid conflicts of interest presents special challenges due to the nature of the relationship of in-house counsel to their employer. This webinar will enable in-house counsel to effectively navigate the conflict rules in the Canadian legal system, and provide participants with the knowledge to successfully implement best practices to avoid conflicts of interest.

This webinar will provide participants with an introduction to key cases including the recent Supreme Court of Canada case of Canadian Railway Co. v McKercher LLP, 2013 SCC 39, and provincial law society rules on conflicts of interest. It will also address when representation might attract a bright line rule, and when a contextual test will be applied; the circumstances in which a lawyer might be disqualified from representation of a client; and why a waiver might be insufficient. It will provide an opportunity to learn about the unique duties of in-house counsel in relation to conflicts of interest. Finally, it will provide discussion on some best practices for creating effective policies and procedures to avoid the creation of circumstances in which a conflict of interest would arise.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Learn about the provincial Law Society rules on conflicts of interest in Canada;
  • Learn the key Canadian cases on conflict of interests, the rules that have emerged from the jurisprudence, and the policy concerns of the Canadian courts in relation to a lawyer’s duty to avoid conflicts;
  • Understand and reflect on your professional duties to your employer, and to your professional regulator, in circumstances in which a conflict of interest may arise; and
  • Learn about best practices and policies to avoid conflicts of interest.

This includes an overview of the capital gains exemption available for the sale of qualifying farm property shares and partnership interests, and rollovers to certain family members (both inter vivos and on death). While similarities do exist with among these transfers, there are traps and nuances that practitioners must be aware of to ensure their transactions qualify for beneficial tax treatment desired.

More specifically, for each of the above types of transfers, this archived webinar will explore:

  • What property qualifies for the treatment?
  • Who is entitled to the preferential tax benefit?
  • What does farming mean in these contexts?
    • What is the business of farming for tax purposes?
    • What is being "actively engaged on a regular and continuous basis"?
