An arbitral award from any other arbitral body is subject to review by a domestic court before it can be enforced, but an ICSID award merely has to be presented to a domestic court with a request that the court enforce it. Under Bill C-9 the award must be recognized and, with this recognition, enforcement mechanisms become available immediately.
Aux termes du projet de loi C-9, la sentence doit être reconnue et, à la suite de cette reconnaissance, des mécanismes d'exécution sont disponibles sans délai.
