Discovery: Atlantic Education & the Law – issue 03
We are pleased to present the third issue of Discovery: Atlantic Education and the Law, our very own legal publication targeted to educational institutions in Atlantic Canada.
A new school year has begun and fall is in the air. Students and faculty are re-charged and ready for what the year has in store. In this edition, our lawyers discuss an array of topics including immigration; environmental, social and governance investing; sexual assault investigations; deportation of international students; privacy; #MeToo; court oversight of decision-making; and new bullying and harassment legislation in New Brunswick.
