CA Member Briefing (Followed by Annual General Meeting)

The election is over, the results are in with the liberals securing another term, and we are now embarking on what could be a critical time in dealing with the U.S. tariff policies and world trade war, and the re-negotiation of the Canada-U.S.-Mexico (CUSMA) trade agreement.  ALL of this can and will affect your business.

CA’s member briefing will provide you with the latest information and experienced assessment of what we can expect going forward, the challenges we will be facing, and opportunities which may be emerging.  Join experienced panelists Dennis Darby, President & CEO of Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME), former MP Joe Jordan, and CA President Darren Praznik as they review the recent federal election results and what they mean for our industry. They will also discuss the latest news from the tariff and trade war, what we can expect from a new CUSMA negotiation and our industry’s expectations and strategies, as well as provide an overview of emerging challenges and opportunities, including disruptions to supply and distribution networks through the U.S.

Annual General Meeting

Cosmetics Alliance will also be holding its Annual General Meeting (approximately 15 minutes) just prior to the end of the Member Briefing.  Company attendees should include those authorized to vote (Brand members) at the AGM.
