Turmoil at the Nova Scotia Barristers Society, Take 32
Stephen Kimber had the latest on the strife at the Nova Scotia Barristers Society, specifically a report that says, among many things, “some council members are so concerned with being heard that they cannot listen.” The report was written by Paula Minnikin from a review she started last summer. Kimber wrote, “Minnikin’s review apparently “underlines key disconnects” and identifies “questionable conduct and other strife” while describing a “cultural mismatch between public lawyers and private lawyers,” citing “a pervasive lack of trust” within the council.”
