It’s a rainy Saturday morning in my part of the province. How about scratching “vote in the Bencher election” off the to do list? This year is more important than ever. Look at
@BGG_Coalition for great candidates.

@PaulErikVeel Louis has chutzpah.

I would encourage everyone to read Larry Banack's thoughtful analysis of the state of this Bencher Election:

Thanks again to @gowlingwlg_ca for hosting a reception for the East Region @BGG_Coalition candidates following the @ccla_abcc AGM. Thanks also to @JacHorvat for her encouraging words to vote next week in the bencher election. Great turnout and conversations.

[Jonathan Rosenthal @jonnyrosenyyz]

Let's not see that happen again and the only way to ensure the FullStop slate does not win is to cast all of your 40 votes for the members of the @BGG_Coalition.

[Jonathan Rosenthal @jonnyrosenyyz]

Few of the 11,000 voters chosen candidates had enough votes to compete with FullStop block voting.

[Jonathan Rosenthal @jonnyrosenyyz]

With respect not sure how you can call vote splitting alarmism. That is exactly how the @FullStopTeam was elected in 2019. In 2019 just like this now anyone who signed up was added to their slate. In 2019 that meant anyone who signed up became a bencher.

[Canadian Lawyer Magazine @CanLawMag]

We need to stop the FullStop. Their divisive campaign has only brought chaos and division to the LSO, writes Michael Spratt of @AGP_Law.

[Chris Horkins @chorkins]

Wise words from the legend @EarlCherniak. He went to war with the LSO on the Groia case and won. He knows what the LSO should be and what it should not be. I trust his judgment and so should you.

[Craig Bottomley @C_Bo_74]

Johnny Rosenthal has been a fantastic pillar of support since the day I started practicing law. He didn't know me from Adam and he was never too busy to answer a question. He's like this with every young lawyer who reaches out. He is tough, ethical and a great bencher.

[Jonathan Rosenthal @jonnyrosenyyz]

Please visit https://t.co/Shnrnwscka  explaining why, this sole practitioner, is running for bencher.    Please  support  the entire good governance coalition.  I have witnessed the conduct of many of the fullstop.  Self-regulation is in jeopardy. @BGG_Coalition

[Tom Curry @jthomascurry]

@JohnCallaghanTO is an experienced Bencher who has my support for the 2023 LSO Bencher election.
