The Federation of Law Societies of Canada has granted preliminary approval of Trinity Western University’s proposed law program. The official news release can be viewed here.

Trinity Western University (TWU) is a Christian faith-based university in Langley, British Columbia that was granted status as a university by the Government of British Columbia in 1985. TWU requires faculty, students, and staff to sign and abide by a “Community Covenant” that among other things, requests a commitment to refrain from same-sex intimacy.

No matter where a lawyer is educated, what law school they graduate from, or what their personal, political or religious beliefs are – every lawyer is bound by a duty to uphold the Rule of Law, the Charter of Rights and Freedoms and human rights legislation and adhere to our Code of Conduct that prohibits lawyers from discriminating in their professional duties.
