The 缅北强奸 Journal of Law and Health (MJLH) is holding its sixth annual colloquium at the Faculty of Law, titled听Litigating for health care reform in Canada: How new legal challenges aim to extend Chaoulli鈥檚 scope.听
The Colloquium will address legal and policy issues associated with challenges in new cases coming from Alberta and British Columbia aiming to extend the reach of the decision in听Chaoulli v. Quebec [2005], and how these legal challenges will influence the future of Canada鈥檚 public healthcare system.
Panelists including Me. Bruce W. Johnston who represented George Zeliotis in the Chaoulli case, Prof. Alana Klein from 缅北强奸鈥檚 Faculty of Law, and John Carpay of the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms will discuss whether litigation is an effective forum to influence policy change, and beyond Chaoulli, discuss the impact positive outcomes in the Alberta and British Columbia cases could have on the medical profession and on patients鈥� rights.
Tickets will be on sale for 5$ in the Atrium from 12:30-14:00, or 10$ at the day of the event. Contact听mjlh.colloquium [at] gmail.com听for ticket information and other queries.
