This year, the OBA Civil Litigation Section Executive is centered on a theme of renewal. With the review of the Rules of Civil Procedure underway and the increasing digitization of the Courts, this is a time of change. We are pleased to support Ontario litigators through this period. Our primary goals for this term are:
1. Meaningfully Contributing to Policy Consultations Impacting Civil Litigators
We aim to be a proactive voice in the policy discussions that affect civil litigators. By participating in these consultations, we strive to represent the interests and perspectives of our members, advocating for improvements that enhance the practice of civil litigation in Ontario.
2. Increasing Section Engagement
We are committed to deepening our engagement with members across the province. By fostering open dialogue, supporting CPD and social events, and by enhancing our communications, we hope to strengthen the connections within our Section.
3. Promoting Diversity and Inclusion
We aim to embrace the diverse perspectives and experiences that make our Section vibrant. We have increased diversity within the Executive this year and will prioritize inclusive dialogue. Our goal is to ensure that our initiatives and programming reflect the varied backgrounds of our members.
