August 24, 2018 —
In the wake of proposed changes to sections of the Criminal Code of Canada contained in Bill C-75 (An Act to amend the Criminal Code, the Youth Criminal Justice Act and other Acts and to make consequential amendments to other Acts), CBC News reported July 31 in the article ‘It’s problematic,’ Bill C-75 to leave low-income people without access to legal help, that law students in Ontario would no longer be able to help clients in need of representation, while gaining valuable hands-on training. As a result of such reports, law students in Manitoba likewise became concerned. Legal Aid lawyer, award-winning sessional instructor and University Law Clinic director Mike Walker offered a clear explanation as to why Bill C-75 will not have any impact on law student practice in criminal matters in Manitoba.
