Dentons’ focus on the energy and natural resources sphere is reflected in its environmental law practice, which routinely acts for the firm’s key oil and gas clients on related matters, including Enbridge, PETRONAS Canada and Syncrude Canada. The team additionally keeps busy advising clients in the transport, infrastructure, chemicals and food and drink industries — among others — on environmental assessments and approvals, regulatory compliance and environmental disputes. Calgary-based counsel Alex MacWilliam heads the team and is widely regarded as a leader in the area. Montreal-based Mira Gauvin is also a key contact.
