Daniel Grodinsky, a commercial litigator, explains the criteria for lifting the corporate veil in Quebec, emphasizing the need to prove shareholders as alter egos, use of the corporation to mask wrongdoing, and the nature of the wrong committed. Douglas Sarro, a law professor, highlights the restrictive approach of Canadian courts, exemplified by the 2018 Chevron case, and suggests potential evolutions in corporate accountability through alternative theories. The conversation underscores the tension between certainty and justice in corporate law.
