We are disappointed by the the current state of the @LawSocietyLSO Benchers, where the experiences of our members were questioned, where diversity has become a dirty word and open dialogue on issues is avoided in favour of motions to silence our voices even more.

[Joshua Sealy-Harrington @JoshuaSealy]

In a recently published “Critical Review”, Bencher Murray Klippenstein claims that basic equality initiatives at the @LawSocietyLSO should be abandoned b/c more “proof” of racism is needed.

I disagree in my latest post on @ABlawg, outlined below 🧵 https://t.co/VGNTIBREoi

[CASL @CDNSOMLAW]

CASL is pleased the motion to undermine the statement of principles @LawsocietyLSUC was defeated. We will remember the benchers who voted against equity, inclusion and diversity at election time #lsuc #equity
