THUNDER BAY — The new name of an institute at the Bora Laskin Faculty of Law that seeks to further the development, understanding, and use of Indigenous law also speaks to how the law should be viewed.
“I think from an Anishinaabe perspective it is important to do everything in a good way and I think especially when we are in a western institution, it is a reminder for all of us to conduct our work from Anishinaabe perspective as much as we can and bring that teaching into everything the institute does,” said Larissa Speak, co-director of the institute and assistant professor in Bora Laskin Faculty of Law.
“I think it’s an important piece of attracting Indigenous students to the law school and helping communities to revitalize their own laws,” she said.
