Barbara Miller’s broad practice is focused on communications, mergers and acquisitions, agribusiness law, corporate governance, public private partnerships and infrastructure projects, and general corporate/commercial matters.

Barbara represents clients on international, cross border and domestic mergers and acquisitions, as well as in connection with restructuring and infrastructure transactions. Her valuable experience includes providing advice with the structuring of joint venture, partnership and shareholder arrangements, and corporate reorganizations generally.

Frequently advising on matters of corporate governance in respect of both the for-profit and not-for-profit sectors, Barbara counsels corporate trustees and management teams on their fiduciary duties and assists corporations in establishing and structuring their operations and affairs in compliance with legislative requirements.

Barbara has considerable experience in relation to Health Canada’s regulatory regime respecting cannabis, having been engaged in providing advice to industry participants since 2013.
