DLA Piper secured a key judgement from the Supreme Court of Canada in favour of Opsis Airport Services Inc. The Court declared Quebec’s Private Security Act to be inapplicable under the constitutional doctrine of interjurisdictional immunity, unanimously concluding that key provisions of the Act interfered with the core of the federal Parliament’s exclusive jurisdiction over aeronautics. “This is not only a major victory for our client, but also an important decision for all businesses operating in the federal sphere,” commented Alan Sarhan , partner and long-time counsel to Opsis. The Canadian team representing Opsis before the Supreme Court was composed of François Tremblay and Marie-Philippe Lavoie .
