SUMMARY:R v Morgentaler: Reflections After 25 Years
DESCRIPTION:Panel Discussion\nOn January 28\, 1988\, 25 years ago\, the Supreme Court of Canada struck down Canada’s abortion law using the still new Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The legal battle was long\, dramatic and groundbreaking – including a police raid on a clinic\, novel constitutional evidence and arguments\, an extraordinary criminal jury trial\, and an acquittal overturned by the Court of Appeal\, followed by a week-long hearing and divided decision at the Supreme Court level. Today\, the case remains one of the most significant decisions in Canadian law. This panel provides a unique opportunity to hear from participants in the case as they reflect on the historic events and the continued significance of the case today. \nPanelists: Dr. Robert Scott – Appellant and Co-Accused\nMorris Manning\, QC – Counsel for the Appellants\nKirk Makin – Justice Reporter with the Globe and Mail\nLorraine Weinrib – Professor\, Faculty of Law\, University of Toronto\nCarolyn Egan – Expert witness at trial\n(Others to be confirmed) \nModerators: Paul Schabas – Blake\, Cassels & Graydon LLP and co-counsel for the Appellant\nCheryl Milne – Executive Director\, David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights \nRead more about this event here. \nListen to an excerpt of the event from CBC Radio’s The Sunday Edition \nCLICK HERE TO VIEW THE RECORDING OF THE EVENT \n  \nEvent date: Tuesday\, January 29\, 2013\, from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM\nLocation: Bennett Lecture Hall\, Flavelle House\, Faculty of Law\, University of Toronto
