Heuristica is pleased to sponsor the Laskin, Canada’s only annual national bilingual moot court competition in Canadian administrative and constitutional law.
The Laskin provides a unique opportunity for law students, judges, law professors and practitioners from across Canada to meet and debate problems of current importance in the law. Its goals are to foster a better and deeper understanding of the law and to support and encourage legal education and bilingualism while at the same time promoting in the legal community a spirit of cooperation and understanding that transcends linguistic and provincial boundaries.
The competition is administered by a committee of volunteer judges and lawyers, and is hosted by a different Canadian law school each year. This year the event is being hosted by the Faculty of Law at the University of Toronto on March 16th and 17th.
Brian Pel, Heuristica’s COO and Senior Counsel, is a Co-Chair of the Steering Committee which is made up of lawyers and judges.
