The Canadian Bar Association : Moving Beyond the Stigma A healthier legal culture depends on open dialogue. The instinct to internalize struggles with mental health, for fear of losing credibility with peers or clients, creates a sense of isolation. In reality, lawyers of all years of practice experience these same burdens.

Hey #canlaw and #lawtwitter, on May 7, I’m going to be part of a panel with Clare Benton to discuss Moving Beyond the Stigma of mental health. Details here: www.cbapd.org/details_en.a...

Govt will appeal decision. Pretty confident #SupremeCourt will make right decision, whatever that may be. If law needs to be amended, so be it. #Canada remains a country that respects the rule of law & has impartial judges. I have great respect for our courts, all way up to #SCC. #canlaw #cdnpoli 🇨🇦

Answering machine message left at dead B.C. couple's home helped lead to murder charges, trial hears Message on an answering machine about "suspicious credit card purchases" helped investigators link to murders of Arnold and Joanne De Jong

It is such BS that these murderers can play the system & delay the trial this way. This makes me angry.

Albertans need a transparent assessment of new forms of major projects with potentially significant consequences.

Psst, undertaking a provincial impact assessment would help avoid an application of the federal impact assessment process. Isn't that what the UCP wants?

The number of individuals sharing accommodation with their landlords & the number of roommates has increased rapidly due to the unaffordability of housing. Alberta's residential tenancy legislation does *not* apply to these arrangements. I discuss the relevant common law in this post.

The UCP's second attempt to dress up the Alberta Sovereignty Within a United Canada Act with a motion to give the illusion of meaningfulness, is, as the authors conclude (after patiently explaining why), simply "a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."
