The members of the external working group are listed below.

A. Neil Campbell, McMillan Binch Mendelsohn LLP

Brian A. Facey, Blake, Cassels & Graydon LLP

Adam F. Fanaki, Borden Ladner Gervais LLP

Denis Gascon, Ogilvy Renault LLP

Richard Janda, McGill University, Faculty of Law

The Bureau also struck an internal working group in order to review the proposed models.

In June 2006, the members of the external and internal working groups completed their work.

The Bureau will spend the next several months reviewing the work done by the internal and external working groups. Based on this review, the Bureau intends to formulate proposals regarding the reform of section 45 and hold public technical roundtables to discuss those proposals.
