Apr. 21, 2026
Online


OBA Constitutional, Civil Liberties and Human Rights Law PROGRAM 
12:00 PM to 2:00 PM (ET)

Successfully litigating a claim under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms requires more than citing leading cases. It demands strategic planning, a strong evidentiary foundation, and careful navigation of procedural and substantive law. 

Our panel of experienced private and public sector lawyers is here to share a practical roadmap for: 

  • Framing pleadings to set you up for a successful claim, including accurately identifying government actors;
  • Developing a persuasive Charter argument;
  • Effectively managing notice requirements;
  • Marshalling the necessary evidence;
  • Determining what remedies to seek; and
  • Navigating funding programs and options for plaintiffs.


Register today to secure your spot and equip yourself to tackle your next Charter claim with confidence.
