They can even give the arbitrator the option of setting aside certain rules of law.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It is\npossible to consent to arbitration once the dispute has arisen, but it is also\npossible to provide for it in advance in a contract, through an\n\"arbitration agreement\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to know that the arbitration decision is final and without appeal, subject to an action for annulment, the grounds for which are expressly provided for in the <em>Code of Civil Procedure of Qu\u00e9bec<\/em>.
