Highlights

The September 2022 issue of The Advocate returned from the printer a few days before the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the legal doctrine of “demise of the Crown” took place.  So, this will be the last edition of The Advocate where many of your learned friends are referred to as Queen’s Counsel.  Those appointed to that office by Her Majesty remain learned counsel of the Sovereign and therefore are now referred to as King’s Counsel.

  • It’s showtime!  In the September 2022 issue, Lulu Island’s very own impresario, Perry Ehrlich, tips his hat on our cover and your editor, D. Michael Bain, K.C., describes Perry’s fascinating route to the law and his impact on the young people of British Columbia.
  • Jeffrey J. Smith explores the international legal situation in the Ukraine with a focus on the unfinished crime of aggression.
  • Sarah Pike, meanwhile, examines the Canadian legal genealogy of Terra Nullius.
  • Recently retired Ontario Chief Justice George R. Strathy delivers a must-read article entitled “The Litigator and Mental Health.”
  • “Blockchain for Bloodfeuds” is the third place winner of the Advocate’s short story competition and was written by Eric Kroshus.
  • Assistant editor, Ludmila B. Herbst, K.C. reviews an unlikely connection to British Columbia in Legal Anecdotes and Miscellanea where she follows a trail from the Court of Chivalry to Annacis Island.
  • Michael Welsh, K.C. says hello to Nova Scotia in his regular wine column.
  • As always we say farewell to nos disparus and welcome appointments to the bench, publish letters to the editor, bring you news from the BC Law Institute, LAP, the Peter A. Allard School of Law, TRU Law, and the Vancouver International Arbitration Centre, and finally inform and amuse you in Bench & Bar where this issue’s theme involve Ceratotherium, Diceros, Dicerorhinus and Rhinoceroses.

God Save The King.
