HOORAY! The Law Commission of Canada is being re-established. Its purpose is to provide independent, unbiased, and non-partisan advice on complex legal issues of national interest.

It was scrapped by the Harper Conservative government in 2006. The reformed commission will focus on: “the complex challenges of the day such as systemic racism in the justice system, legal issues around climate change, establishing a new relationship with Indigenous peoples, and rapid technological shifts in the world.”

COURT WORKERS – “Pop up at the courthouses.”

The criminal justice system is still paper-based. Therefore the government requires many court workers to attend court in person and be subjected to a health risk. Their vaccination has to be prioritized.
