Nearly 300 lawyers and law students have endorsed an open letter urging the Canadian government to preserve the integrity of the charitable sector.

As law students, we’re often told to find summer work that elevates our resume. But what about work that also builds our character? Or sharpens your mind, serves a greater purpose, and reminds you why you went to law school in the first place? That’s what I found this summer at Christian Legal Fellowship (CLF).

Christian Legal Fellowship recently made a submission to the House of Commons Finance Committee in defence of religious charities.

Aujourd’hui, le 30 juillet, marque la Journée mondiale contre la traite des personnes. La traite des êtres humains n'est pas seulement un problème lointain — c'est un problème majeur ici même au Canada.

Today, July 30, marks the World Day Against Trafficking in Persons. Human trafficking isn’t just happening in faraway places – it is a major problem right here in Canada.

Today, the Supreme Court unanimously upheld Canada’s prohibitions on profiting from, or inducing, the sale of another person’s sexual acts. Christian Legal Fellowship (CLF) was an intervener in the case, and welcomes today’s decision.

The timing and location of the Christian Legal Institute (CLI) from April 28 to May 3 in London, Ontario, was ideal.  As a third-year law student wrapping up my studies, stepping onto the serene grounds of the Ivey Spencer Leadership Centre felt like exhaling a breath that I hadn’t realized I had been holding.

Christian Legal Fellowship has been granted leave to intervene in O’Neill v. British Columbia (Minister of Health).

In a recently released report, the United Nations’ Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities expressed that it is “extremely concerned” about Canada’s expansion of MAID, and issued a number of recommendations to implement Canada’s international human rights commitments.

CLF has submitted a comprehensive written brief in response to the Alberta government’s invitation to participate in its consultation on regulating assisted suicide and protecting the vulnerable.

The Christmas season is here, bringing with it a renewed emphasis on ideals like “peace on Earth.” But what does “peace” really mean —  especially in a world full of distractions, demands and discord?

CLF is deeply concerned by any proposal to remove the “advancement of religion” as a charitable purpose.

CLF is intervening in a Quebec case to defend the fundamental freedoms of all Canadians to worship without undue state interference, and to be treated as full and equal participants in Canadian life.

Last month, Christian Legal Fellowship hosted its first CLI Reunion and Summer Capstone event at Redeemer University in Hamilton, Ontario. Members from different life stages came together and swapped stories of academic aspirations, uncertainties, hardships within their careers, and huge changes in their own life journeys.

This year, the Christian Legal Institute (CLI) ran from April 29 to May 3 and featured many distinguished speakers including lawyers, legal scholars, and honourable justices. CLI started in 2009 and was created to enable students and other professionals to articulate a robust Biblical worldview in a legal context while enjoying opportunities for fellowship, discussion, and refreshment.

CLF has filed its intervention factum with the Alberta Court of Appeal in Wirring v Law Society of Alberta, proposing ways to clarify Canada’s legal test for religious freedom claims and ensure its proper application.

CLF has been granted leave to intervene by the Supreme Court of Canada to defend Canada’s laws combatting sexual exploitation.

CLF is thankful to report that Bill C-62 received royal assent yesterday. Many human rights advocates have urged Parliament to halt the expansion of assisted suicide to people whose sole underlying condition is mental illness. Without Bill C-62, the expansion would have automatically occurred on March 17 of this year. That date has now been pushed to March 17, 2027.

Aujourd’hui, la Cour d’appel du Québec a rendu sa décision dans la contestation constitutionnelle de la Loi 21 du Québec. La Cour a jugé que la loi est constitutionnelle, largement en raison de son invocation de la clause dérogatoire de la Charte. Ainsi, la Loi 21 continuera à s’appliquer au Québec.
