My colleague @kerrifroc.bsky.social is hosting a conference marking the 40th anniversary of the coming into force of section 15 of the Charter. Looks like a great event! See the CFP below:

Some quotes from me on the LG appointment case going up to the SCC: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Supreme Court case over unilingual N.B. lieutenant-governor could have broader implications | CBC News
Legal experts say a pending Supreme Court of Canada case about whether New Brunswick's lieutenant-governor must be bilingual could have much broader implications and be precedent-setting.

One of reasons I fear slippery slope into eugenics with assisted dying policies is how little outrage there is when disabled people are harmed

When DNRs are put on us without consent. When - like Stephanie Lavoie - we’re denied the care we need to survive & do MAiD instead

No one speaks up for us

It seems to vary in different jurisdictions. Saw multiple lawyers walking down the street in their robes when walking near the Palais de justice in Montréal this September

A thorough & persuasive argument by colleague @jenniferkoshan.bsky.social that gov't name & pronoun policies enable family violence against gender diverse youth &, so far as they are based on “parental rights” at the expense of the best interests of children, they have no legal basis.

It's frigging hard to build up my feed from what I had on x. Who are the constitutionalists and/or feminists and/or cool people who are interested in similar stuff who O should be following?
