Last year, the Shanghai High People's Court rendered final judgment on an antitrust dispute between two Johnson & Johnson subsidiaries in China and their former distributor in Beijing. The judgment, which overturned a lower court ruling, held that the two subsidiaries were liable for damages resulting from attempts to enforce a vertical monopoly agreement against the distributor. As the first antitrust judgment relating to vertical monopoly agreements in China, the case signals the stance of the Chinese courts towards vertical trade restraints and provides guidance for future cases.

The judgment of the Supreme Court of Canada in in Bisaillon v. Concordia University is a welcome reaffirmation of two principles. The first is that the procedural remedy has not changed the substantive law. Thus, if no individual action lies, no collective action lies either. The second principle is that the class representative must have a sufficient personal interest to sustain an action. This paper will examine each of these principles in light of examples drawn from Quebec case law.
