Aboriginal Economic Development (Part 1) Sponsored by LSUC and OBA a Great Success (original) (raw)

On June 20th, 2012 in partnership with the Ontario Bar Association, the Law Society of Upper Canada hosted a legal education program and reception at the LSUC’s Donald Lamont Training Facility in Toronto. The seminar, “Aboriginal Economic Development: The Legal Toolbox — Theory and Practice,” featured a wide range of speakers with legal expertise in Aboriginal economic development and corporate practice. This program was free of charge and open to the profession and public. The June 20th event was held as part of LSUC’s thirteenth National Aboriginal History Month public education equality event1, and as part of their commitment to supporting groups marginalized in the legal sector. This paper summarizes the event.
