#IJC2019 wrapped up today!

We had a terrific, hands-on conversation about how law students can take action on the knowledge we gained.

Thanks to @KarenDrake, Larissa Speak and Shaun Bell for facilitating!

Q&A with ⁦@AajuPeter⁩ after the #angryInuk at #IJC2019

We are hearing about her advocacy against false information in the anti-seal hunting campaign and how it’s harmed the #Inuit communities.

@LawLakehead @danielwdylan @AajuPeter @NativeLawCentre Led off by @AajuPeter, she's telling law students not to pass legislation based on what you hear.

She refers to laws being passed in Europe governing the seal hunt without examining the impact on Arctic communities. #IJC2019

"Seals are our economy," she says

@LawLakehead @Hadleylf @UAlbertaLaw @Pam_Palmater @RyersonU @mylakehead Lots of discussion on Bill C-92.

Prof. Friedland raises an interesting point:

There’s no question about child safety, but how are we defining stability and security (in making our decisions)?

[LSS @LakeheadLSS]

@LawLakehead @Hadleylf @UAlbertaLaw @Pam_Palmater @RyersonU @mylakehead "We should be working very hard to insert the social back into the justice system."

You can do a critical analysis, but you have to ask: Is this fair?
