Legal Issues Committee

Legal Issues Committee

Egale Canada relies on the expertise of lawyers from across Canada to inform our efforts to advance the rights of 2SLGBTQI people and issues.

One way we do this is through the Egale Legal Issues Committee (LIC), which is made up of lawyers who share a commitment to the advancement of 2SLGBTQI rights and interests.

Egale’s LIC is responsible for monitoring the development of law affecting 2SLGBTQI people in Canada, providing expert strategic guidance and championing the work of Egale. LIC members sometimes act as pro bono counsel to Egale.
