SUMMARY:Morris A. Gross Lecture - the Honourable George R. Strathy\, Chief Justice of Ontario
DESCRIPTION:Judicial Courage and Restraint in Canadian Constitutional History\nThe Morris A. Gross Memorial Lecture was established in memory of the late Morris A. Gross by the law firm Minden Gross LLP and by members of his family\, friends and professional associates. The intention of the lectureship is to\, every two years\, bring to the Faculty of Law a distinguished scholar or a member of the practicing bar or bench for discussion with the student body and Faculty\, and to deliver the bi-annual Morris A. Gross Memorial Lecture. \nThis year\, the Morris A. Gross Memorial Lecture will be delivered by the Honourable George R. Strathy\, Chief Justice of Ontario\, as an introduction to the David Asper Centre for Constitutional Rights’ 2017 Constitutional Roundtable series\, which will be in celebration of Canada’s Sesquicentennial. \nThe Honourable George R. Strathy was appointed Chief Justice of Ontario June 13\, 2014. He was appointed to the Court of Appeal for Ontario on April 25\, 2013. For the previous five years he served as a judge of the Superior Court of Justice in the Toronto Region\, where he presided over civil\, class action and criminal matters. Chief Justice Strathy received a Bachelor of Arts degree from McGill University in 1970 and was awarded a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship to pursue graduate studies. He received a Master of Arts degree in International Relations at the University of Toronto in 1971. He attended the Faculty of Law at the University of Toronto and was awarded the Gold Medal in 1974. \nIn practice\, he specialized in civil litigation\, with particular emphasis in Maritime and Transportation Law. He was a partner in the firms of MacKinnon\, McTaggart\, Campbell Godfrey and Lewtas\, and Fasken Martineau Walker before establishing his own firm in 1991. The firm ultimately became Strathy & Isaacs. He was active in a number of professional organizations\, including the Canadian Bar Association (Chair of the Young Lawyers’ Division and member of the Executive Committee)\, the Canadian Maritime Law Association (Vice-President)\, the Canadian Association of Maritime Arbitrations (Vice-President)\, and the Canadian Association of Average Adjusters (Chairman). He is the author of two books on marine insurance in Canada as well as numerous papers and articles. \nChief Justice Strathy is married to Elyse Strathy. They have five daughters and seven grandchildren. He is an enthusiastic\, but not particularly talented\, squash player\, golfer and tandem cyclist.
