Rocco Galati - Constitutional Lawyer - A Good Man

13.10.19: An article, in the Toronto Star today (I can't include the link without paying the Star) and October 8th in the National Post, about another Stephen Harper problem.

Galati, on his own, without remuneration, declared unconstitutional the appointment by Harper to place Marc Nadon to the Supreme Court of Canada.

Nadon has since stepped aside "for now", even though the move was approved.

Another attempt by Harper to put his people in key positions.

In looking into Galati, I am very pleased to see what he has been doing ... an unpaid auditor general of Canadian constitutional matters ... to support the interests of all of us.

He is heading up a team of lawyers who will work pro bono (a portion of their time) to ensure constitutional accuracy on the part of federal government.

Galati has the tenacity to pursue challenging and thorny issues for some time. 
He also indicated, a few years ago, CSIS was eavesdropping on his emails with clients ... confirmed by Snowden's NSA leak concerning global eavesdropping activities (by USA, Britain, and other countries such as Canada).

Hopefully, Galati is encouraged to continue offering these free and valuable services to Canadians.
