PBLA, the Canadian Bar Association – Alberta Branch and members of the judiciary from the Alberta Courts worked together to produce four educational videos that are available for the public to view at the Calgary and Edmonton Courthouses. The videos provide unrepresented claimants with short, easy-to-understand instructions about basic courtroom procedures, processes, etiquette and other useful information. The videos are in the areas of Courtroom Etiquette, Landlord and Tenant, Foreclosure and Civil Claims. The CBA Young Lawyers in Calgary and Junior Lawyers in Edmonton wrote the scripts and acted in the videos. The lawyers also worked closely with members of the judiciary to create the content for all the videos. The videos were launched at PBLA’s 5th Anniversary celebration on June 21, 2012 in Calgary. The four films, accompanying scripts and resource materials can be viewed on PBLA’s website at www.pbla.ca . The films are also located on YouTube at www.youtube.com/probonolawalberta.
