Canada's Supreme Court Chief Justice faces Human Rights Complaints - Please Circulate Widely
Media Release
Immediate Release July 14, 2007 Supreme Court Chief Justice named in Human Rights Complaint The Right Honourable Beverly M. McLauchlin, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada faces complaints of discrimination at the National Judicial Institute. The Chief Justice oversees the National Judicial Institute (NJI), which trains Judges in areas such as Family Law, dealing with Custody and Access issues and Criminal Law. The Human Rights Complaint, to be served by the Ontario Human Rights Commission, claims "systemic discrimination" at NJI. www.nji.ca A recent article in the Fraser Forum by Chris Schafer, an Ottawa Lawyer, entitled "Continuing Judicial Education A Lesson in Bias" is a strong indication that government needs to be very concerned with the "hidden agenda" at NJI. Biased training of Judges may result in biased Civil and Criminal Court decisions. The lives of everyday Canadians are dependent upon a justice system which is free of bias. Please review the article: http://www.fraserinstitute.ca/admin/...5ffSchafer.pdf For further information on the Human Rights Complaint, please contact: Wayne Cook , 416-609-0372 or contact Ms. Barbara Hall, Chief Commissioner, The Ontario Human Rights Commission www.ohrc.on.ca, 416-326-9511 Toll Free 1-800-387-9080. |
