This project responds to the often-stated need that more empirical data a re required to better understand what kind of impact the normative instrum ents created by WHO (either binding and non-binding) have at the domestic level. More specifically\, this study focuses on the impact the WHO’s no rmative instruments have had on Canadian and French law (legislation\, reg ulation and case law) over the last decades. Using both quantitative and q ualitative approaches\, 540 references have been studied from Canadian and French legal databases. The analysis of this data provides insightful inf ormation regarding: (1) WHO’s legitimacy according to Canada and France (that is\, in what legal areas Canada and France mostly use WHO’s norms for\, which norms are mostly cited and in what context\, etc.) and (2) the relevance of the distinction between binding and non-binding norms in WHO ’s normative strategy. This Canadian-French study will serve as a basis for a broader study that will include more countries. conférencière : C atherine Régis Professeure agrégée\, Titulaire de la chaire de recherch e du Canada sur la culture collaborative en droit et politiques de la sant é\, Faculté de droit\, Université de Montréal Site chaire : http://ww w.chairesante.ca Site Catherine Régis : http://www.catherineregis.ca   The Impact of International Standards in the Canadien Pharmaceutical Law T he marketing of medication is organized today to meet an international dem and. The discovery\, production and commercialization of pharmaceutical pr oducts occur across borders and in a context of globalization. However\, i t must remain a safe\, effective and quality product. For this\, internati onal standards emanating from authority external to classical internationa l law attempt to regulate the different phases of the drug’s life cycle. Considered as an alternative source of law\, the application of these sta ndards not only helps to harmonize the marketing procedures\, they redraw the contours of the applicable pharmaceutical law. This conference will ai m to define the context of globalization in which the standards intervene and to raise the question of their normative force. conférencière : Lau rence Largenté Coordonnatrice scientifique CRDP\, chargée de cours\, can didate au doctorat Faculté de droit de l’Université de Montréal Site Laurence Largenté : http://laurence.largente.org/a-propos/recherches/ Cette activité ne fait pas l’objet d’une reconnaissance pour la forma tion continue au Barreau du Québec et à la Chambre des notaires du Québ ec.
