- members of the Legal Community Condemn Assault on Gaza
A group of law students studying at the Faculty of Law at McGill University drafted a statement, in English and French, on behalf of themselves, and the broader legal community to condemn the continued violence against Gaza by Israeli forces.

The statement was written in response to the lack of vocal opposition, and in an effort to create a network of people united against such injustice.
