The @OBAlawyers Class Actions Colloquium is on December 1, 2023! So many great speakers including Justices Zarnett, Sossin, Morgan, Akbarali, McDonald, & Branch, w/ Justice Jamal speaking at the post conference reception! cbapd.org/details_en.aspx?id…

In our last in person appearance at ONCA, we filed documents that had the SAME hard copy page number as the PDF page number. Some judges use paper copies and others use the PDF version, so it made it faster and simpler to just have to refer to ONE page number. You're welcome!
Hey #LawTwitter I've got 2 tips for appearances in ONCA: 1. The Judges want you to refer to PDF page numbers and 2. As noted on the ONCA website - Judges of the Court of Appeal for Ontario are addressed as “Justice” followed by their last name, not as “Your Honour”. Live & Learn

In case you need some CPD credits by tomorrow.
Need professionalism and EDI hours in Ontario? @LawSocietyLSO has just approved my interview with Justice Akbarali for 15 minutes of EDI content and 30 of other professionalism content. Watch and report by December 31, 2022!

Any opportunities for summer students floating around? Trying to convince a 2L from @UWindsor that OCI rejection can be a blessing. Toronto or Ottawa preferred, but open to anywhere in Ontario.
#LawTwitter, work your magic!

It’s my last night of parental leave. I can’t believe how fast this past year has gone! Tomorrow I return to @RH_LLP as counsel, practicing family law (in Ottawa) and fertility law (in Ontario). I have capacity for new clients and referrals are appreciated! ☺️

I'm looking forward to attending this event on December 1 (in person!) with my colleagues from across the profession.

Other than suggesting it may breach rules of conduct, is the LSO going to do anything about it?

Update: I made the submission that there is lots of interest but very little notice to the profession on this vote. Chair of PD&C agreed. This motion is deferred until next Convocation in Feb. If you believe articling students should have a min wage, please let benchers know!

In 2018, Convocation passed a # of enhancements for #articling incl a min salary for articling students (equivalent to statutory min wage). Tomorrow, a different group of benchers will vote on whether to keep minimum salary….fyi re important decisions being made @LawSocietyLSO
