Top Five 2019

Each year at OJEN’s Toronto Summer Law Institute, a leading jurist identifies five cases that are of significance in the educational setting. The 2019 cases were selected and discussed by Mr. Justice Lorne Sossin of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. This summary, based on these comments and observations, is appropriate for discussion and debate in the classroom setting.

Disclaimer: Please note that the case R v Barton includes strong sexual content and describes sexual violence causing the death of an Indigenous woman that will be disturbing for some students.
