Vancouver-based Goldcorp Inc. dropped its $3.2 billion hostile takeover bid for Montreal-based Osisko Mining Corp. on April 23, after Yamana Gold Inc. and Agnico-Eagle Mines Limited, both based in Toronto, emerged with a friendly $3.54 billion cash and stock bid.

Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison and Norton Rose Fulbright—Am Law 100 firms that have bolstered their Canadian operations in recent years—landed roles advising Yamana and Agnico-Eagle on the deal. Norton Rose Fulbright senior corporate partner Cathy Singer, finance partner Robert Mason and M&A and mining partner Dawn Whittaker in Toronto are advising Yamana. The Norton Rose verein, which absorbed Am Law 100 firm Fulbright & Jaworski last year, has grown rapidly in Canada after combining with Ogilvy Renault and Macleod Dixon.
