From the President

“There is little or no difference between endurance runners and Canada’s internationally trained lawyers. During their long-time journey preparing for the race, they both feel drained, they both face debilitating doubts, and for some reason, they both keep going with unbreakable resilience. They push through the pain, they somehow quiet their doubts, and they keep their goal in sight: crossing the line. And finally, when they cross the line, which they will, they tell themselves: huh! I did it! And now what? What’s my next challenge?” Antonio F. Urdaneta
