WOW! Thirty years of quality publications in the realm of public legal education. Having been a subscriber and contributor to LawNow for almost 20-years, it has been a pleasure to observe the magazine continually evolve to meet the demands of the legal community by not only expanding its scope of delivery but also ensuring that local, national and international legal issues are addressed in a reader friendly format. LawNow should be available to students and faculty at any college or university across this fair country! - John Winterdyk

Law was, for centuries, explained in complex jargon not only to maintain its mystique and gravitas, but also to ensure that only a specialized official citizenry was able to profit from its mysteries and influence.  An increasing aspect of the unique legitimacy and vigour of the law of Canada, however, has been the plainer translation of its principles to not only modern times but to all people.  Law Now has for three decades given voice to those who remember that the Rule of Law comes from fulfilling the Honour of Law, which in turn exists if the Law is known to deserve its Honour.
