#EdwardH
I remember one Saturday morning in the mid-1970’s at U of T law school when a bunch of us were nervously gathered to practice our mooting skills.
Ms Edwardh and Clay Ruby walked in to act as judges.
She was all smiles and cheer, and it was as if the sun had come out.
Very sad to see she’s gone.

Maybe Marlys Edwardh is ready to 5ake up the mantle (it's been offered to her 3x, but she has always said there are still too many laws that need changing)

It's been a couple of weeks of watching my heroes (across disciplines) fall. This one was so kind to me when I needed it most, and I will remember her for that.

When Marlys Edwardh in Toronto was approached by the Liberals to run they said it would cost her $75k (that's only anecdotal, but I rely on it)

Read Kirk Makin’s beautiful obituary and tribute to Marlys Edwardh’s extraordinary life and career in yesterday's The Globe and Mail: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

That's so fuckled. Judges are exactly that: bound by precedent.

Three times (maybe more by now) Canada has asked Marlys Edwardh to sit on the highest bench in our lands replete with a red passport and security detail... She refuses because, "there are still so many laws that need changing".
