Numerous prior posts dating back to 2012 (see here for the subject matter tag) have discussed SNC-Lavalin Group’s (a Montreal-based engineering, procurement and construction services company) scrutiny under Canada’s FCPA-like law, the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (CFPOA).

The below guest post from McCarthy Tetrault attorneys John Boscariol, Andrew Matheson and Robert Glasgow summarizes the enforcement action and its broader implications.
