@StFXAthletics @XMenhockey Delighted that Charlie is joining the X-Men, great school/great hockey.
@PirateMike911 @BGG_Coalition Thanks Mike
@AMoustacalis @LawSocietyLSO Thanks Anthony.. enjoyed working with you on legal aid issues
Bencher election voting starts tomorrow. For those (like me) who oppose Stop SOP / Full Stop and everything they stand for, the 2019 election is often discussed as a worst case scenario. But the reality is that 2023 could be worse. A thread… 🧵
We've heard a lot about "creep" this Bencher election. Facilitating access to justice isn’t "creep.” Here are my remarks about this important part of our collective responsibility as lawyers. When voting opens tomorrow, please support all of our @BGG_Coalition candidates.
Sidney Troister, a recipient of the Law Society Medal, operates a practice that encompasses all aspects of residential and commercial real estate in Toronto. When voting opens tomorrow, return him to Convocation with the rest of the Coalition's team of experienced leaders.
@Famlawoncoxwell I would not favour further expansion unless there is evidence it’s in the public interest. I’m not a family law lawyer, but I do listen. For example, I lobbied successfully for the expansion of Unified Family Court and Legal Aid (to learn more: Johncallaghan.ca)
@Famlawoncoxwell Mary, I don’t believe you’ve understood my position correctly. As I said in the FOLA survey: the FLSP assessment must be rigorous and must focus on the overall public interest. I would oppose expansion while the FLSP is under review, and...
I would encourage everyone to read Larry Banack's thoughtful analysis of the state of this Bencher Election: banackresolutions.com/wp-content/upl…
@jonnyrosenyyz @addariolawgroup @johnstruthers @AMoustacalis @GHW_barristers @crimlacy Thanks to those leaders of the criminal bar for their support
I am grateful for Larry's trust in me and the other members of the @BGG_Coalition to "effect change in Convocation" and "work hard and effectively in the governance of the profession in the public interest." Vote BGGC to return competent, representative leadership to the LSO!
Some final thoughts on the eve of the Bencher election voting period. I am enormously proud to be a lawyer. I didn’t grow up around lawyers. I wasn’t encouraged to go into law because of a perception in the Asian Canadian community that the profession was inaccessible to us. /1
Efforts by the LSO to address issues of inclusion and diversity in the profession are neither new, nor woke, nor creep. Listen to The Honourable Frank Marrocco, KC provide some historical context as to how our LSO has grappled with these issues since its inception.
@jonnyrosenyyz @justiceinpieces Well said Jonny.. people should listen to understand the complexity of the LSO and the need for real governance
@LencznerSlaght @LawSocietyLSO Will is a voice you need at Convocation
We're honoured to be endorsed by 20 former Presidents of The Advocates Society, who "know the importance of a strong board of directors whose members bring diverse views and meaningful governance experience to the role." Read more: goodgovernancecoalition.ca/post/we-re-end…
20 former Presidents of The Advocates' Society endorse the @BGG_Coalition, including Marie Henein, @rothsteinlinda1, and many more leaders of the profession! Trust your colleagues. goodgovernancecoalition.ca/post/we-re-end…
The @LawSocietyLSO Voting Guide is out. Have a look at the members of the @BGG_Coalition. One common theme is enhancing competence through mentorship, a properly funded library system, technology, continuing education and wellness supports.
Please support all of these experienced and competent Bencher candidates. I feel honoured to be among such rockstar lawyers and paralegals. @BGG_Coalition. Voting begins April 19th!
When Benchers took the LSO's important government relations work seriously, they helped the profession win on issues such as contingency fees. Coalition candidate and former Bencher John Callaghan outlines more...
