In-House Leadership Retreat - Montreal 

November 13, 2026 | Fairmont The Queen Elizabeth | Montreal, QC

There’s something about Montreal in November — the crisp air, the steady pace — that makes it a powerful backdrop for intentional, year-end leadership development. This edition of the In-House Leadership Retreat immerses you in a full day of learning and strategic thinking designed for in-house counsel. You’ll explore what’s ahead for the profession, what your business needs next, and how you can lead with confidence into 2027.

In-House Leadership Retreat - Toronto Island 

May 28, 2027 | Royal Canadian Yacht Club | Toronto Island, ON

A full day for senior in-house lawyers, back on Toronto Island — a ferry ride from downtown, and far enough from the office to actually think. Peer roundtables and focused sessions built around what legal departments are navigating right now.

In-House Leadership Retreat - Regina 

October 29, 2027 | The Hotel Saskatchewan | Regina, SK

The Leadership Retreat heads west again, this time landing in Saskatchewan for the first time. Same format, wherever it lands: small group, candid discussion, and ample networking. This year it puts the Prairies at the centre of the conversation, with The Hotel Saskatchewan — a Regina landmark since 1927 — as the backdrop.
