TMU CSR Institute co-sponsored zoom session: Trump 2.0 -- Navigating Uncertainty: Canada, Trade and Business

The Institute for the Study of Corporate Social Responsibility at Toronto Metropolitan University*(TMU) is pleased to co-sponsor an online zoom seminar. The seminar brings together five TMU professors to analyze the recent disruptive actions of the Trump 2.0 Administration and their implications for Canada. Building on a previous seminar that attracted significant interest (accessible here), this follow-up session will explore critical developments including international trade law, emerging supply chain complexities, corporate social responsibility/law dimensions, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), and retail industry impacts. The expert panel will offer informed insights, identify future trends, and discuss strategic options for Canada in navigating ongoing uncertainty in Canada-U.S. relations. Each expert will be addressing their topic area with the assistance of slides in concise 20-minute presentations.

The seminar is organized by TMU Ted Rogers School of Management (TRSM) professor Dr. Gil Lan (glan@torontomu.ca).
