As Canada and the rest of the world emerges from a year-and-a-half of pandemic-induced shutdowns and closed borders, musicians everywhere are keen to get back to touring, or to travel to other cities for recording and songwriting sessions, and more.

So, in this webinar, Canadian Musician Editor-in-Chief Michael Raine and a panel of experts will be explaining the legal requirements that musicians need to understand in order to plan their next shows or other work-related travel.
