Background

As of November 30, 2014, of the over 1500 issuers listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX"), 332 were listed on another exchange or marketplace. On January 22, 2015, the TSX announced proposed amendments (the "Amendments") to the TSX Company Manual (the "Manual") to modify, expand and formalize the exemptions currently available to issuers that are listed on two or more exchanges or marketplaces ("Interlisted Issuers").

According to the TSX, Interlisted Issuers are generally subject to at least two sets of exchange requirements that often address the same policy objectives, causing duplication and sometimes contradiction in the requirements imposed upon them. The purpose of adopting a broader deference model is to increase transparency and to reduce the regulatory burden on eligible Interlisted Issuers by allowing the TSX to defer to other exchanges or jurisdictions for certain transactions and corporate governance matters.

Speculation Or Security: Canada’s Evolving Regulatory Framework For Prediction Markets

Canadian securities regulators have established a limited framework for prediction markets, restricting which event contracts can be offered to investors and under what conditions. While certain economic and financial forecasts may be traded through authorized dealers, contracts based on political events, sports, or entertainment remain prohibited, and compliance with securities law does not resolve potential exposure under criminal gambling provisions.

Could The Old Ontario Construction Lien Act Still Apply To Your Project? The Court Of Appeal Weighs In

A 2026 Ontario Court of Appeal decision reveals that construction contracts signed years after legislative reforms may still be governed by the old Construction Lien Act if the procurement process began before July 1, 2018. The ruling demonstrates how early project proposals and negotiations can determine which statutory regime applies, regardless of when the final contract was executed or where the project was ultimately built.
