Langlois Kronström Desjardins marks International Women's Day
On the occasion of this International Women's Day, Langlois Kronström Desjardins is sponsoring the Cassiopée fashion show and cocktail buffet to benefit the Québec City YWCA. This event is being organized by the Québec City Chamber of Commerce's Women's Action and Leadership Committee, the Québec City YWCA, the Association of Québec Women in Finance and the Québec City regional chapter of the Québec Business Womens Network, in which Isabelle Toupin, a lawyer in the firm's Québec City office, is actively involved. In addition to Isabelle's involvement in this event, three of our lawyers, Jean-Philippe Abraham, Jean Patrick Dallaire and François-Xavier Thibodeau-Gagnon, are also participating, as models, having agreed to stroll the catwalk for this worthy cause. Finally, partner Marie-Claude Carrier will be speaking as the firm's representative at the event, and will explain the development of her career as a female partner within our "large firm with a human touch" and how she has managed to flourish in the traditionally male milieu of construction law. Congratulations to all for their involvement!

Langlois Kronström Desjardins wins an important appellate case

On February 29, 2012, the Québec Court of Appeal rendered a long-awaited judgment in the continuing legal battle between Canadian Royalties and Nearctic Nickel Mines concerning their respective ownership interests in a mining property in the area of the Plan Nord in Northern Quebec called the Expo Ungava Property (the “Property”). Situated just south of Xstrata’s Raglan Mine, the Property has been found to contain significant mineralization and is currently being developed by Canadian Royalties, which has invested in excess of $500 million in developing its Nunavik Nickel Project.
