Assignment Scenario:

The Slash Co Knives Corporation is an American corporation who is planning to expand into the Canadian market. The corporation sells knife sets door to door with a mobile sales force. The knife sets that they sell are of inferior quality and are prone to breaking, which has caused injury to their customers in the past. The company has historically had strong sales due to its pushy sales force even though their knives are worse than similar knives that can be bought at retail outlets. The knives are also priced significantly higher than similar products. The Slash Co Knives Corporation is concerned that there may be some Canadian laws that may negatively impact or restrict their business when they move into the Canadian market.

They have hired you to advise them in this regard and have asked you to describe any significant aspects of Canadian law that they should be aware of and outline any options they may have to limit their liability.
