2026 International Comparative Law Program

November 4-6, 2026
Montréal, Québec

Don’t miss beautiful Montréal for IMLA’s 2026 International Comparative Law Program, happening November 4–7, 2026! This new program brings local government lawyers together to swap ideas, compare how different jurisdictions tackle similar challenges, and learn from one another—all in an unforgettable setting.

We’ll gather at the MEM – Centre des mémoires montréalaises, right in the heart of the city for the program.

Here’s what to expect:

  • Wednesday, November 4th – Welcome Dinner
  • Thursday, November 5th – Full day of programming (lunch + coffee/snacks included)
  • Friday, November 6th – Half day of programming (lunch + coffee/snacks included)
  • Saturday, November 7th – Check out of the hotel

And because this is Montréal… we’re not stopping when the sessions end. On the evening of November 6, join us for a dinner and special cultural experience (think show, performance, or something uniquely Montréal).
