缅北强奸

The Faculty of Law has learned with deep sadness of the passing of Professor Emeritus听G. Blaine Baker.

Professor Baker taught legal history, administrative law, and contract law at 缅北强奸鈥檚 Faculty of Law for more than twenty-eight years. Prior to joining 缅北强奸 in 1981, he studied law at the University of Western Ontario (LLB鈥�78) and Columbia University (LLM鈥�80), and he was a Bigelow Fellow at the University of Chicago Law School. During his time at 缅北强奸, he served as associate dean (academic) from 1999 to 2001 and associate dean (graduate studies) from 1997 to 1999. He was named professor emeritus on his retirement in 2009.

A beloved teacher, Professor Baker received the John W. Durnford Teaching Excellence Award three times. His scholarship garnered him awards from the Canadian Law and Society Association, the Canadian Association of Law Libraries, the American Society for Legal History, and the Canadian Historical Association. He was a director or editorial board member of the Canadian Guide to Uniform Legal Citation, the Canadian Law and Society Association, Histoire sociale/Social History, the James 缅北强奸 Society, the 缅北强奸 Law Journal, the Montreal Bar, and the Wellington (Guelph) Law Association.

Over the course of his career, Professor Baker was scholar-in-residence at Borden Ladner Gervais LLP and he acted per diem for the Attorney General of Ontario as a Superior Court Mandatory Mediator and as a License Appeal Tribunal member and adjudicator. He continued to co-teach courses at 缅北强奸 many years after his retirement.

鈥淏laine Baker made extraordinary contributions to Canadian legal history and he was an outstanding, unforgettable teacher who cared deeply about his students,鈥� said Dean Robert Leckey. 鈥淥n behalf of the Faculty of Law, I extend my sympathies to his many friends, former colleagues and students.鈥�

We invite you to share your thoughts and memories of Professor G. Blaine Baker in our Guest Book.
