Part of the prize for the winners is an invitation to attend the competition the following year. So one of last year's winners, Emilio, will be present to judge, make friends and hand over (not out) the shield at the FAD. Behold the 2022 winners, Jessica and Emilio!
Retweeting again to further endorse this. The British Crown has nothing to do with anyones ability or integrity as a lawyer. I am not a knight errant or imperial magician. Drop the Oath.
Thank you to those who added their perspectives to the LSA statement on the Oath of Allegiance.
If you'd like to voice your support regarding amending the Act you can find a link to do so on our website.
Please reach out to LSA representatives to speak more on the issue.
The Law Students’ Association at the University of Alberta is a representative student group of several hundred future lawyers.
We are calling on the Province to amend the Legal Professions Act, RSA 2000, c L-8 regarding the required Oath of Allegiance.

@AnnaJaneL They literally said, “if you can’t swear the oath because it goes against your beliefs/religion…don’t fret! It won’t deprive you in any way! Oh, except for the fact that you can’t be a lawyer in this province!” How archaic 😒
@LouiseCastiillo @URHealthPsycLab @natashaagallant Spent our childhoods dreaming of these moments! So proud of you and your accomplishments, you super star✨💕
