MAPping Your Liquor Host Liability

Municipalities routinely manage risks tied to road maintenance or slip-and-fall incidents, but alcohol service presents a different, and often overlooked, liability exposure. 

Whether it’s a beer garden, a wine tasting event, or serving alcohol in a municipally owned facility, the risks are real and potentially costly. This session will explore the hidden liability challenges municipalities face when alcohol is involved, and how to manage those risks effectively.  

Tracy Eso is joined by Cynthia Aoki, Partner, Clyde & Co. Canada LLP, to share insights on: 

  • The importance of a Municipal Alcohol Policy and how that policy affects community partnerships. 
  • Cases and legislation across the country that impact liquor host liability.  
  • Areas where liability exposures are often missed and require attention. 
  • How contractual risk transfer factors into alcohol service in municipal and community activities.
