Torys Quarterly piece on growing influence of AI featured in Canadian Employment Law Today

Canadian Employment Law Today has republished an article by Mitch Frazer, Lisa Talbot, Brad Tartick, Irfan Kara and Pat Denroche on employment law and constructive dismissal in the face of the AI era for the Torys Quarterly.

We will all have to learn a new process.
