Abstract

This paper presents an examination of the problem of overly broad investor protection provisions in foreign investment protection systems, through the lens of Canadian governmental policy, and a subset of actors in the natural resource extraction industry. Utilizing this prism, the paper considers the issue, and uses current cases to illustrate why certain investor protection features in treaties are especially problematic, for investors, investor host and home countries, and investment protection regimes alike, particularly when it comes to developing nations.
