Gladue Review for Crown Attorneys, Defence Counsel, and Judges

September 9 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm

Seminar Overview:

To coincide with the launch of the Gladue Writer Pilot Project portal, we are pleased to offer a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) seminar focused on the Gladue process. This seminar is designed to provide members with an in-depth understanding of how to request Gladue reports and navigate the Gladue process in our justice system.

Agenda Highlights:

Gladue Report Process: Learn about the newly launched portal, understand who is responsible for requesting reports from the courts, and get an overview of expected timelines.
Confirmation of Heritage: Learn about how heritage is confirmed in a manner that keeps access barriers low.

Gladue Information in an Open Court: Explore the use of discretion in handling Gladue information, the potential for closing the courtroom, and recent court rulings on the legal threshold for demonstrating consideration of Gladue factors.

Q&A Period: An opportunity for participants to ask questions and engage with the presenters.

Seminar Presenter:

Jane Dickson, PhD (Law, London School of Economics and Political Science, University of London, U.K.); MA, BA (School of Criminology, Simon Fraser University, Canada)
