Law Day 2017: Celebrating Canada’s legal system

On Saturday, April 29, 2017 the Canadian Bar Association is celebrating the 35th anniversary of the signing of Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Our annual Law Day provides an opportunity for the public to learn about the law, the legal profession and the legal institutions that form the cornerstones of Canadian democracy.

Law Day is an excellent way for the public to learn about the vital role lawyers and the judiciary serve in guaranteeing an open, independent and unbiased judicial system. Various organizations will showcase what kinds of careers are available in the legal system.

Activities include courthouse tours, mock trials, and attendance by the fire department, law enforcement officers, ambulance attendants, court clerks, registry staff, lawyers and judges to name a few.

Community agencies will take part in a fair to provide information about their organizations.

Law Day is a family friendly event, open to all ages.

Saturday April 29, 2017
Kelowna Law Courts, 1355 Water Street
Event: 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Community fundraiser BBQ: 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
