This practitioner-led, small-class, experiential course is intended to simulate a practice in securities litigation. Participants will gain exposure to general substantive law and an opportunity to learn about different forums in which Ontario securities disputes may be raised. The course will use a theoretical and contemporary fact pattern against which participants will strategize. This course involves advocacy skill exercises, written assignments and moot-style assignments. The bulk of assessment will be based on participation and the mid-term and final moot performances.
