Trauma-Informed Legal Writing
Date: September 9, 2025
Time: 1:00 pm – 2:30 pm ET
The BCLI’s Guide to Trauma-Informed Legal Writing is an introductory resource that provides (1) a brief overview of trauma; (2) consideration on the importance of trauma-informed legal writing; and (3) suggestions for best practices for a trauma-informed approach to legal writing. The Guide includes a glossary of terms and resources for those who want to learn more about trauma-informed practices.
This presentation seeks to provide a broad overview of the guide, including skills development. Highlights include: the emotional and psychological impacts of trauma; how to improve clarity and accessibility of written work to foster trust and collaboration; and how trauma-informed practices support better outcomes for individuals navigating the legal system. By integrating trauma-informed principles, we hope to aid legal writers in producing documents that are not only legally robust, but also supportive and compassionate towards the needs of those affected by trauma.

The CER’s Reconciliation Journey
Date: March 21, 2025
Time: 11:30 am – 1:00 pm ET
We are pleased to invite you to an upcoming webinar with the Canada Energy Regulator titled “The CER’s Reconciliation Journey“.
This webinar represents an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the CER’s efforts towards advancing Reconciliation. When the Canada Energy Regulator Act was promulgated in 2019, it included a requirement for an Indigenous Advisory Committee, to enhance the involvement of Indigenous Peoples in the lifecycle oversight of pipelines and transmission lines. The new Act also included text about reconciliation and UNDRIP in the Preamble to the Act. We will hear valuable insights from Tracy Sletto (Chief Executive Officer of the CER), Tribal Chief Tyrone McNeil (Chair of the CER Indigenous advisory Committee) and Richard Aisaican (Indigenous Caucus CO-Chair of the Line 3 Indigenous Advisory and Monitoring Committee).
The session will explore themes of Indigenous inclusion, how Indigenous perspectives and partnerships strengthen an organization’s strategy (including approaches to work in the field) and building cultural intelligence.

Last fall, in response to our survey, CCAT members expressed a strong and enthusiastic desire to learn more about reconciliation and Indigenous law and how to bring that learning into our work in the administrative justice sector. The survey results align nicely with the federal government’s recently stated commitment to encouraging Indigenous legal systems to flourish alongside the Canadian justice system.
CCAT’s Truth and Reconciliation and Tribunal Excellence Committees are therefore thrilled to announce that the Indigenous Law Research Unit (ILRU) at the University of Victoria Faculty of Law will present three 90-minute webinars on Indigenous Legal Systems tailored to the particular needs and circumstances of the administrative law community. ILRU is the leading academic research institute dedicated to the revitalization of Indigenous law and governance. ILRU’s training is engaging, challenging and informative.
The schedule is as follows:
Session 1: Introduction to Indigenous Law
This session provides a broad overview of Indigenous law for those who are relatively unfamiliar with the topic. The presenters discuss resources and sources of Indigenous laws, and pose some critical questions about legal theory, legal methodology and the application of laws.
Wednesday, March 15, 2023, 1:00 pm-2:30 pm EST
Presenters: Jessica Asch, Brooke Edmonds, Tara Williamson
Session 2: Functions of Law and the Application of Indigenous Law
The presenters discuss ILRU’s approach for accessing, understanding, and applying Indigenous laws, and go over some of the critical analysis performed during the rearticulation of Indigenous laws. Presenters expand upon the role law plays within a society and discuss how Indigenous laws are currently being applied in many different Indigenous communities.
Thursday, March 30, 2023, 1:30 pm-3:00 pm EST – note that the time for this session starts at 1:30 pm, rather than 1:00 pm.
Presenters: Val Napoleon and Rebecca Johnson
Session 3: Opportunities for Tribunals with Indigenous Law
The presenters will facilitate an interactive discussion with participants about whether and how Indigenous laws can be applied within an administrative legal context. The discussion is intended to be a dialogue where both participants and presenters brainstorm the application of Indigenous laws within a tribunal setting. We hope to identify and address challenges of reconciling the two different legal orders.

Adjudicators and judges are dedicated to making the best decision possible, applying relevant legal standards to the evidence they receive. But over the past 15 years important developments in cognitive science have come to the attention of legal decision-makers, leading to growing insight into how our brains may sometimes get in our way. These webinars will explore some of that science, examine how researchers have investigated its application to judges and adjudicators, and share best practices to strengthen decision making and nurture impartiality and consistency. You will have a chance to test some of the science yourselves through a series of interactive exercises and debriefs.
The workshop will be delivered in two parts. Part 1 (September 12) will explore the basics of cognition, including cognitive bias. Part 2 (October 6) will focus on the concept of “noise” in decision making. Noise refers to the many extraneous factors that can knowingly and unknowingly lead to inconsistency and inaccuracy in decision making. It is the subject of a new book by Daniel Kanneman, Olivier Sibony and Cass Sunstein. We will explore the concept of “decision hygiene” and how it might be applied in administrative tribunals. Attend either or both parts.

This two-part webinar series will support adjudicators in understanding and applying equity, diversity, inclusion and human rights obligations in their work. The webinar’s objective is to ensure that in managing hearing rooms, designing adjudicative processes, and making credibility findings, tribunals and their members intentionally consider how to be inclusive, accommodating, and free from implicit bias and racism.
Part I (September 29) will be instructional. It will present key ideas, case law and research including:
Part II (October 20) will be both instructional and interactive. First, there be a short panel of adjudicators who will discuss issues that they have had to work through in adjudication. We will then use break-out rooms to work through adjudicative scenarios with panel members and other experts assigned to a break-out room to help facilitate discussion.
This webinar is offered in English only, except that there will a French version of the materials and breakout rooms for French discussion. Choose to attend one or both parts. The workshop sessions will not be recorded.
