A Message From the Editor

Good Morning. Today we're looking at the Canadian legal market, where associates are seeing their first salary hikes in four years. We also have an exclusive interview with Anu Bradford, the Columbia University Law School professor who coined the term "The Brussels Effect" and warns that now is not the time for the EU to retreat from its regulatory agenda. We also take a look at China-founded Gen AI startup DeepSeek, whose arrival should serve as a welcome wake-up call for the tech industry, legal experts say. And DLA Piper and Boies Schiller Flexner have filed a lawsuit on behalf of Trump Media and Rumble against the Chief Justice of Brazil's Supreme Court.
