PAGE 10 June 28, 2010 • Law Times Congratu L aw Times congratulates the 1,263 new lawyers who were called to the bar this month in three cities across Ontario. Ceremonies to mark the occasion were held in Ottawa, London, and Toronto. On June 16 in Toronto, Law Society of Upper Canada Treasurer Derry Millar addressed the crop of new lawyers by emphasizing the importance of the independence of the legal profes- sion. "The right to self-governance and regulation is a privilege," he said. "We must be ever mindful that public confidence and the protection of its interests are essential prerequisites to the independence of the legal profession. We must also be vigilant not to erode public confi- dence in our capacity to govern the profession."

This year's recipients were Supreme Court of Canada Justice Thomas Cromwell; Ontario Chief Justice Warren Winkler; Diana Lynn Fuller, one of the first female Crown prosecutors in the province; for- mer LSUC treasurer Gavin MacKenzie; and Abdulrahim Ali Chahbar, a lay bencher of the law society. MacKenzie, in his speech on June 16, vowed to continue the Convocation tradition of "unoriginal advice offered up by a self-important speaker wearing a gown in which he looks ridiculous." In doing so, he touched on five key areas, including the need for the new lawyers Ian Leo Grover Flett Marc Aaron Flisfeder David Sean Fogel Ho Ching Fok Barry Fong Christine Marietta Fortino Jérèmie
