Ecojustice Canada's incredible work over the past twenty years
cannot be overstated. With offices in Vancouver, Calgary, Ottawa and
Toronto, Ecojustice has represented pro bono citizens and community groups
across the country at all levels of court. Ecojustice has initiated law
reform and secured far reaching legal precedents in the areas of
environmental assessments, public consultations, the precautionary
principle, endangered species, critical habitat protection, the polluter
pays principle and public health - this is a legacy that benefits us all.
