A Seismic Shift in Regulation of BC Lawyers: A Case Study in the Failure of #Democratic Law-Making. “On 10 April 2024, the details of #Bill21 became public...

Their only say in governance would be to elect 5 of its 17 members.” | Catherine Morris, SLaw https://www.slaw.ca/2024/07/24/a-seismic-shift-in-regulation-of-bc-lawyers-a-case-study-in-the-failure-of-democratic-law-making/ #LegalProfession
