Northfield & Associate International Corporation Announces Intent to Establish Canada–Cambodia Venture Capital and Private Equity Collaboration Involving 50 Canadian Firms

Phnom Penh / Toronto — December 19, 2025 — Mr. Andy Lim, the President of Northfield & Associate International Corporation are pleased to announce on December 19, 2025, the company’s intent to initiate a business collaboration with fifty (50) Canadian venture capital and private equity firms to facilitate bilateral trade and investment opportunities for Cambodian investors.

The proposed collaboration is designed to create an institutional-grade platform enabling compliant capital participation, co-investment, and strategic market access between Canada and Cambodia. The initiative prioritizes governance rigor, risk-adjusted returns, and sector-focused deployment aligned with both jurisdictions’ regulatory frameworks and investment mandates.

Under the contemplated framework, Northfield & Associate International Corporation will coordinate market origination, investor engagement, and cross-border structuring, while the Canadian partner is expected to contribute fund management expertise, due diligence protocols, portfolio construction, and post-investment value creation. Target sectors include advanced manufacturing, agri-business, infrastructure-adjacent services, clean technology, and digital economy enablers, subject to regulatory approvals and final agreements.

“This initiative reflects a disciplined approach to cross-border capital formation grounded in transparency, regulatory compliance, and long-term value creation,” commented by Mr. Andy Lim.

“By aligning Cambodian investor appetite with Canadian private capital expertise, we aim to establish a credible conduit for bilateral trade expansion and sustainable investment.”

The collaboration intends to adhere to applicable securities laws, anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing requirements, foreign investment review processes, and tax governance standards in both jurisdictions. Engagement with legal counsel, compliance specialists, and independent advisors will underpin transaction structuring and execution. Next steps include partner selection, definitive documentation, regulatory consultations, and the establishment of an operational governance model. No binding commitments have been executed at this stage.

Northfield & Associates and TAIE International Institute Discuss Strategic Collaboration for Cambodian Students Pursuing Higher Education in Canada

Thornhill, Ontario — August 18, 2025 — Mr. Andy Lim, President, and Mr. That Suon, CEO of Northfield & Associates International Corporation, were invited by Mr. Bryan Abichandani, Project Manager of TAIE International Institute, for an in-depth tour of the institution’s facilities and to explore potential business collaboration opportunities. The meeting, held at the TAIE International Institute campus, centered around a strategic partnership aimed at supporting Cambodian students interested in continuing their higher education in Canada.

During the visit, Mr. Lim and Mr. Suon discussed various opportunities for collaboration, particularly focusing on creating structured pathways for Cambodian students to pursue academic excellence at TAIE International Institute. The discussions also underscored the importance of forming a clear, legally compliant framework for international student admissions, which would ensure both institutional and student interests are fully protected.

The proposed collaboration seeks to formalize a partnership that prioritizes the following key business objectives and legal principles (1) Strict Adherence to Regulatory Standards; Both Northfield & Associates and TAIE International Institute are committed to complying with all relevant local and international laws governing student admissions and visa applications. This includes ensuring that all recruitment activities are aligned with the Canadian Education and Immigration Laws, which necessitate an airtight process for ensuring students meet all criteria for a study permit; (2) Data Protection and Confidentiality; A critical component of the collaboration involves protecting the personal and academic data of prospective students. Both organizations agree to strict confidentiality agreements to ensure that sensitive information is handled according to Canadian privacy laws, including Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA); (3) Clear and Transparent Pathways for Students; The collaboration will focus on developing transparent, scientifically grounded admission procedures that provide students with clear expectations regarding their educational journey in Canada. A key component will be leveraging advanced data analytics to forecast the success of students from Cambodia based on academic history and demographic data. This will guide tailored support programs, ensuring both academic and career success post-graduation; (4) Mutual Business Benefits; By facilitating access to high-quality Canadian education for students from Cambodia, this collaboration stands to benefit both institutions. TAIE International Institute will expand its reach and diversify its student body, while Northfield & Associates will further cement its position as a trusted education consultant specializing in Canadian higher education pathways; and (5) Risk Mitigation and Contingency Planning; To safeguard both parties’ interests, a comprehensive risk management plan will be developed. This plan will include contingency provisions in the event of regulatory changes, market disruptions, or unforeseen complications in the recruitment process. Both institutions have committed to working closely with legal advisors to ensure all agreements are enforceable, addressing any potential legal complexities before they arise.

Mr. Lim and Mr. Suon expressed enthusiasm about the potential partnership, noting the significant opportunity it presents for both institutions and the Cambodian students seeking to advance their education in Canada. The visit and discussions were the first step in what promises to be a productive and mutually beneficial collaboration. Further discussions are scheduled to formalize the partnership and define the scope of student recruitment, curriculum development, and ongoing support mechanisms.

How to Immigrate to Canada without a Job Offer

Many people believe that they need a job offer to immigrate to Canada, but this is not always the case. There are many programs that do not require a job offer, to be eligible for immigration to Canada.

In fact, the programs that are mostly used to immigrate, do not require a job offer. Here is a list of a few of them:

  1. Federal Skilled Worker (FSW) program – processed via Express Entry (EE) system
  2. Canadian Experience Class (CEC) program – processed via Express Entry (EE) system
  3. Federal Skilled Trades (FST) program – processed via Express Entry (EE) system
  4. Many provincial nominees programs (PNP) – processed either via Express Entry (EE) system or separately, non-EE processing
    • Each province has its own programs that change from time to time, therefore it is advisable that one checks each province separately to know what categories are available at a certain date in time and what are the current requirements.
    • Most provinces prefer to accept people who have ties to the province, either they studied or worked there, they have relatives to support them during the first few months after becoming a permanent resident (PR) or otherwise are very much interested in establishing themselves in that province.
  5. Family sponsorship program
    • Spousal / common-law partner category
    • Dependent children category
    • Parents and grand-parents category
    • Other members of the family, if the conditions are met

For the first four programs listed above, there are a few common conditions:

  • Have their language abilities tested (English or French or both) by an independent organization approved by Immigration, Refugee and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Various programs have different levels of requirements regarding the language knowledge level in the four sections tested: speaking, writing, listening and reading. All tests must be evaluated to the equivalent of the Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB).
  • Have their credentials evaluated by an institution approved by Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada;
  • Have certain amount of work experience in an occupation listed in the National Occupational Classification (NOC) Canada, which includes in a systematic order all the occupations in the Canadian labour market (recently IRCC employs the 2021 NOC).

Various programs have different requirements regarding NOC levels (teers);

  • After registering the profile in EE, IRCC sends successful applicants an Invitation to Apply (ITA), for those that have been selected for the program;
  • Pass a medical exam and not be inadmissible;
  • Provide police certificates from all the countries where an applicant has lived continuously for six months or more in those places, since becoming eighteen years of age.

Advancing Canada–Cambodia Bilateral Relations

Phnom Penh — March 26, 2025 — Canada and Cambodia have maintained a dynamic and evolving bilateral relationship rooted in decades of diplomatic engagement, multilateral cooperation, and growing economic ties. With the recent elevation of Canada’s diplomatic mission in Phnom Penh to a advancing Embassy in March 2025, under the broader Indo-Pacific Strategy, opportunities for deeper partnerships are expanding. As part of Canada’s Indo-Pacific Strategy, the Honourable Mary Ng, Minister of Export Promotion, International Trade and Economic Development, will lead a Team Canada Trade Mission (TCTM) to Thailand and Cambodia in May 2025. Canada will also send business delegations to the Lao People’s Democratic Republic and Brunei Darussalam in May 2025.

Northfield & Associates recognizes the strategic importance of this relationship and is committed to further deepening its collaboration with Cambodian and Canadian partners. As Canada continues to emphasize democratic development, sustainable economic growth, and regional security in its engagement with Cambodia, Northfield & Associates is well positioned to play a pivotal role in facilitating meaningful partnerships and projects that align with these goals.

The strong trade relationship valued at $2.4 billion in 2024 reflects the robust potential for Canadian businesses. With Cambodia benefiting from Canada’s Market Access Initiative (providing duty-free, quota-free access for LDCs), Northfield & Associates stands to gain significantly by supporting Canadian exporters and investors exploring high-growth sectors in Cambodia, such as textiles, infrastructure, agriculture, and sustainable development.

By leveraging its networks and expertise, Northfield & Associates will continue to build bridges between Canadian business leaders and Cambodian markets. This includes facilitating trade missions, investment forums, and capacity-building programs that promote ethical practices, innovation, and mutual prosperity.

Furthermore, Northfield & Associates strongly values the foundational principles of Canada–Cambodia relations: human rights, rule of law, press freedom, and anti-corruption. Our work reinforces these priorities by promoting transparent, accountable, and inclusive practices in all engagements.

Through active collaboration in multilateral platforms such as the UN, ASEAN, WTO, and La Francophonie, Northfield & Associates is proud to contribute to a bilateral relationship that supports peace, stability, and economic resilience in the Indo-Pacific region.

Resolving Contract Disputes

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Disputes over contracts can be stressful, costly, and time-consuming. Whether you’re dealing with a broken business agreement, a delayed real estate deal, or an employment contract that wasn’t honoured, these issues affect more than just your finances, they impact your peace of mind and your future. Understanding your legal rights is essential, and having the right representation makes all the difference.

At Northfield & Associates, we help clients in Canada resolve contract disputes efficiently and fairly. As a leading civil litigation partners law firm, we focus on securing outcomes that reflect your legal rights while minimizing the disruption to your life or business. If you’re searching for a contract dispute lawyer civil litigation legal help, our team is ready to stand by your side.

What Causes Contract Disputes?

Contract disputes arise when one party believes the other has failed to meet their obligations under a written or verbal agreement. This could involve a failure to pay for services, delays in completing a job, disagreements over timelines, or even questions about whether a valid contract existed in the first place.

Many contract cases involve business partnerships, home renovation projects, or commercial leases. We frequently help clients address disputes related to real estate transactions or construction delays. In all cases, our goal is to bring clarity to the disagreement and take decisive legal action when necessary.

The Legal Approach to Fair Outcomes in Ontario

Ontario courts look at several key factors to determine what is fair when a contract is in dispute. These include the original agreement, any written or verbal communications, the conduct of each party, and the actual financial or reputational harm caused by the breach.

The legal system aims to enforce valid contracts while offering remedies for broken promises. If someone failed to deliver what they agreed to, the court may award compensation. In more complex cases, the court might order the breaching party to complete their end of the agreement or cancel the contract altogether if it was entered into unfairly.

Whether you’re a business owner dealing with a supplier issue or a homeowner facing delays from a contractor, you need legal advice that reflects the specific facts of your case and the local legal context.

Get Legal Support Early to Protect Your Rights

If you suspect a contract has been breached, the best time to speak to a civil litigation lawyer is before the situation escalates. At Northfield & Associates, we often meet clients after they’ve spent weeks or even months trying to resolve the problem themselves. But early legal advice can preserve evidence, clarify your legal position, and sometimes resolve the dispute without going to court.

We offer in-person consultations in Cambodia and Canada, along with remote options for clients Canada, especially across Southern Ontario. If you’re looking for a contract enforcement lawyer near me, we can guide you through the process with clarity and care.

Remedies for Breach of Contract:

What You Can Expect

Not every contract dispute ends in a lawsuit. At Northfield & Associates, we explore all possible paths toward resolution from negotiation and mediation to formal litigation. Depending on the facts of your case, available legal remedies may include financial compensation, court orders to enforce the contract, or actions to prevent further breaches.

In real estate disputes, a court may require a sale to proceed as agreed. In business agreements or employment cases, financial damages are often the most appropriate remedy. Each case is different, and the remedy that fits your goals may depend on how quickly legal action is taken.

If you’re dealing with a breached contract, contact our team now to protect your rights and take control of your legal options. Early action often leads to faster, more favourable outcomes.

Local Representation Makes a Difference

Choosing a lawyer who works in your area gives you a strategic advantage. We understand how courts operate, and we’re familiar with regional expectations, from real estate customs to business litigation climate.

Thinking of Filing for Divorce?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Filing for divorce in Canada can feel overwhelming, especially when emotions run high. Whether you’re dealing with a contested or uncontested divorce, understanding the legal steps can make a big difference. At Northfield & Associates, our family law firm proudly serves clients in Canada region. We combine legal expertise with compassionate guidance to help you through this difficult time.

Your First Step to a Better Future

If you live in Canada or surrounding areas and are considering divorce, it’s important to understand the basic legal requirements.

  • First, you must be legally married.
  • Secondly, either you or your spouse must have lived in Ontario for at least 12 consecutive months.
  • Lastly, your marriage must have broken down, which is usually demonstrated by living apart for one year, but can also be shown through adultery or cruelty.

Best Divorce Lawyers for Separation

At Northfield & Associates, we assist Canadian residents with every stage of the divorce process. Whether you are seeking a simple uncontested divorce or navigating a complex high-conflict separation, our experienced team offers the personalized support you need to move forward.

Understanding Contested and Uncontested Divorce

An uncontested divorce is the most straightforward type of divorce, where both spouses agree on important matters such as property division, decision-making responsibility, parenting time, and financial support. This agreement allows for a quicker and less expensive resolution. Northfield & Associates provides uncontested divorce services to clients in Canada who are looking for a simplified process.

By contrast, a contested divorce arises when spouses cannot agree on one or more critical issues. This could involve disputes over decision-making responsibility, parenting time, disagreements about spousal or child support, or challenges related to the division of property and debts. Contested divorces can take more time and often require court involvement. If you are experiencing a contested divorce any surrounding area, Northfield & Associates will advocate for your interests and help you navigate the process with clarity and confidence.

How to File for Divorce

Steps for Canadian Residents

No matter where you live filing for divorce involves several key steps. Each step plays an important role in ensuring that your application is legally sound and progresses smoothly through the family court system.

Step 1:

Decide whether your divorce is contested or uncontested. Before filing anything, it is crucial to determine whether you and your spouse agree on all key issues. If you do, you may file for an uncontested divorce, which is typically quicker and less expensive. If disagreements exist about property, decision-making responsibility, parenting time, or financial support, your divorce will be considered contested.

Step 2:

Collect the necessary legal documents. You will need a copy of your marriage certificate, financial disclosure forms, and any existing separation agreements. Accurate documentation ensures that your case is properly supported and avoids delays.

Step 3:

Complete the correct divorce forms. Depending on your situation, you may need Form 8A for a simple divorce or Form 8 if your application includes claims for support or custody. Financial Statements (Form 13 or 13.1) are required when there are support or property issues, and Form 36 is used as an affidavit in support of the divorce.

Step 4:

File your application with the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. You must submit your completed documents at the courthouse that serves your municipality. Residents in Canada, for example, can file through the local court located near the city, should file at their respective regional courthouses.

Step 5:

Serve your spouse with divorce documents. After filing, you must legally serve your spouse with the documents. This step is mandatory unless you and your spouse are filing jointly. Proper service ensures that the process is fair and provides your spouse an opportunity to respond.

Step 6:

Wait for a response or court processing. If your spouse does not respond within the designated time period and there are no issues, your application will move forward uncontested. In contested cases, court hearings may be scheduled to resolve outstanding matters.

Step 7:

Receive your divorce order. Once all conditions are met and the court approves your application, a final divorce order will be issued. This legally ends your marriage, usually becoming effective 31 days after the order is granted.

Following these steps carefully will help you manage your divorce process with confidence. For additional guidance our team at Northfield & Associates is here to help you at every stage.

What to Do If You’re Charged with a Criminal Offence in Ontario

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Being charged with a criminal offence in Canada is a life-altering experience. It often brings confusion, fear, and uncertainty. Whether it’s an assault allegation, a driving offence, or a financial crime, your actions in the first 24 to 48 hours can heavily influence the outcome of your case. Knowing your rights and the immediate steps to take can mean the difference between conviction and acquittal. Northfield & Associates, a firm with offices in Cambodia and Canada region, provides expert legal representation for a wide range of criminal offences and is dedicated to protecting your rights from day one.

Your Legal Rights Upon Arrest

When you’re arrested in Ontario, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees you certain fundamental protections:

Right to Be Informed of the Reason for Arrest

Police officers must explain in clear language why you are being detained. If you’re not told what you’re being charged with, the arrest can be challenged later in court. This is a foundational right ensuring transparency in law enforcement.

Right to Remain Silent

You are not obligated to answer any questions other than confirming your identity. Anything you say can and likely will be used against you in court. People often believe they can talk their way out of a situation, but more often than not, this harms their case. The safest move is to say, “I want to speak to my lawyer.”

Right to Speak to a Lawyer Without Delay

Upon arrest, you must be given an opportunity to contact legal counsel as soon as reasonably possible. You can speak to a private lawyer or duty counsel (a free legal advisor provided by Legal Aid Ontario and/or across Canada). This ensures that you receive legal advice before participating in any police interviews.

Right to Be Informed of These Rights

Officers must not only inform you of your rights but also ensure you understand them. If you don’t speak English fluently or have cognitive limitations, the police must accommodate this. If your rights are not properly explained, any evidence collected may be inadmissible in court.

Immediate Steps After Being Charged

Remain Silent and Calm

Resisting arrest or becoming aggressive can lead to additional charges, such as obstruction or resisting arrest. Stay calm, follow instructions, and limit your speech.

Contact a Criminal Defence Lawyer

Call Northfield & Associates immediately. Our criminal defence lawyers have experience handling a variety of criminal matters, including high-stakes cases. A lawyer can begin building your defence right away by protecting your rights, collecting time-sensitive evidence, and intervening in police procedures if necessary.

Avoid Discussing the Case

Even casual conversations with friends or family can become part of a police investigation. Refrain from discussing your case with anyone until you’ve spoken extensively with your lawyer. This includes phone calls from jail, which may be recorded.

Collect and Preserve Evidence

If you’re released after arrest, take immediate steps to document what happened: note timelines, locations, conversations, and possible witnesses. This information will help your lawyer construct a timeline and identify weaknesses in the prosecution’s case.

Bail Hearings

In most cases, bail hearings take place within 24 hours of your arrest. This is a critical stage where your liberty is at stake. Bail hearings determine whether you’ll be released pending trial or held in custody.

Northfield & Associates has extensive experience representing clients at bail hearings. We assess the Crown’s grounds for detention and present robust plans of release often including sureties (people who supervise the accused) or specific conditions (e.g., curfews or no-contact orders).

Grounds for Denial of Bail

1. Primary Ground:

Ensuring the accused’s attendance in court.

2. Secondary Ground:

Public protection or risk of committing further offences.

3. Tertiary Ground:

Maintaining public confidence in the administration of justice, especially in serious cases.

Bail hearings must be handled strategically. Poor planning or weak proposals can result in pre-trial detention, which is not only demoralizing but may negatively affect the trial outcome.

Specific Criminal Charges and Their Defences

Domestic Assault

These cases often involve conflicting narratives and emotional dynamics, where even minor altercations can result in charges if police believe that violence has occurred. Ontario often enforces a zero-tolerance approach, which can lead to formal charges being laid without the need for corroborative evidence. At Northfield & Associates, we understand how difficult this process can be for victims seeking justice. We work diligently to advocate for their rights, support their role in the criminal process, and ensure that their voices are heard and respected. From assisting with police statements and securing protection orders to guiding clients through the complexities of trial, we are committed to resolving domestic assault cases with discretion and sensitivity. Our goal is always to pursue outcomes that promote both safety and accountability, while minimizing further trauma to those affected.

Sexual Assault

At Northfield & Associates, we are committed to advocating for victims of sexual assault. These cases are deeply personal and emotionally taxing. We understand the trauma that survivors endure, and we work tirelessly to ensure their voices are heard and their rights upheld throughout the legal process.

We help victims navigate the complexities of reporting the assault, preparing for testimony, and understanding what to expect in the criminal justice process. Our team ensures that victims are treated with dignity and respect, both in and out of the courtroom. We also assist in securing protective measures such as restraining orders or no-contact orders, and we liaise with police and prosecutors to support the case every step of the way.

Northfield & Associates provides compassionate, experienced legal support for survivors while fiercely pursuing justice against those who have caused harm.

Assault and Aggravated Assault

Northfield & Associates represents victims of assault, including aggravated assault, which involves serious bodily harm or life-endangering injuries. Victims may suffer physically, emotionally, and financially, and we help them seek justice through the criminal courts.

We assist clients in filing police reports, gathering medical and witness evidence, and advocating for their rights during trial proceedings. Our legal team ensures that clients understand their role in the prosecution’s case and helps them prepare for their participation in court.

We also work to ensure victims have access to appropriate support services and pursue restitution or civil remedies where available. At Northfield & Associates, we stand firmly beside assault victims as their advocates and legal representatives.

Dangerous Driving

These charges can arise from momentary lapses in judgment or more serious acts of negligence behind the wheel. When representing victims in dangerous driving cases, Northfield & Associates takes a thorough approach to uncover the full context of the incident. We work to demonstrate that the accused’s actions clearly met the legal threshold for dangerous operation, such as excessive speeding, distracted driving, or disregard for public safety. We gather evidence from accident reconstruction experts, assess road and weather conditions, and scrutinize mechanical inspections to build a compelling case that supports the victim’s account and highlights the serious consequences of the driver’s behaviour.

Fraud and Theft

White-collar crimes involve intent to deceive, often backed by financial records and complex financial transactions. When representing victims of fraud or theft, Northfield & Associates works meticulously to uncover and present evidence that clearly demonstrates intentional wrongdoing. We help clients navigate the process of reporting the crime, preserving financial records, and working with forensic accountants to trace misappropriated funds. Our team challenges any attempts by the defence to minimize culpability by proving that actions were deliberate and not the result of misunderstandings. We also work toward recovering stolen assets and advocate for full accountability through both the criminal justice system and potential civil remedies. With experience in handling intricate fraud cases, we ensure victims have the strongest representation possible.

Young Offenders

The Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA) emphasizes rehabilitation over punishment, particularly for young individuals whose actions may stem from immaturity, peer pressure, or difficult personal circumstances. Charges under the YCJA can range from non-violent offences like mischief or theft to more serious crimes involving violence. At Northfield & Associates, we support youth victims and their families by ensuring their interests are represented compassionately and firmly. We advocate for diversion programs or extra-judicial sanctions where appropriate, especially in cases where restorative justice can bring meaningful resolution. Our team also works to protect the long-term interests of youth by ensuring records are expunged post-sentence when possible, safeguarding their future educational and employment opportunities. We collaborate closely with parents, educators, and youth counsellors to secure outcomes that promote healing, accountability, and community safety.
