Congratulations to Shalini Konanur on being elected Treasurer of the Law Society of Ontario.
I also want to thank the benchers who showed that the Law Society still has at least some common sense left by not electing Mr. Rubber Stamp.
Apparently, “no questions, no research, no due diligence, just nod and approve” was not enough of a platform.
The autopen was left unplugged.
The rubber stamp stayed in the drawer.
And for one day, common sense actually survived at the Law Society.
From STOPSOP, to floor crosser, to Good Governance the machine finally jammed.
Congratulations to the new Treasurer. Now let’s hope this is the beginning of real leadership, real accountability, and a Law Society that remembers it is supposed to serve the public interest not just protect the club.
