An American journal article from 2008 predicted that Canada would be next in terms of large scale product liability and complex litigation.
The article stated:
At a 2008 products liability symposium, a well-regarded New York City Plaintiffs’ attorney stood before a room of lawyers and in-house counsel. The topic of his presentation was, in part, to forecast the next direction of mass tort litigation. His message to those listening was clear. “Canada is next”
