We are Canada's national association of Christian lawyers and law students.

As Christian legal professionals, we are heirs to a tradition of legal thought that bears on many of the most pressing questions facing our culture and profession. We also understand that the practice of law is a vocation: a calling from God. We believe it is our responsibility to work with others to pursue what justice requires in a free and democratic society.
