As the LSSO continues to advocate and engage with the LSO on the recent summer bar exam changes, it is becoming increasingly clear that a reversal of the decision is not likely. (1/5) #lawtwitter

LSSO President @OceanEnbar and VP External Jenny Zhou featured in @lawyersdailyca 👏 E-mail individual benchers your views on a minimum wage for articling students to: bit.ly/LSOBencherEmails *cc the us at [email protected]
Ocean Enbar and Jenny Zhou @LSSOnt -- Law students: Not a minimum wage unless it’s mandatory thelawyersdaily.ca/articles/… "Unpaid work lowers articling students’ morale and leaves highly indebted licensing candidates to start their career at a distinct disadvantage..."
We’re hearing many candidates express concerns about what this means for their licensing timeline, employment plans, study materials, vacation days/study days, finances, and many more nuanced implications. Our priority is to get students answers and insight into the next steps.

Replying to @LSSOnt
I initially took an unpaid position just so I could start my articles. I lasted one month before desperately finding a paid position through a family friend. I had that luxury. Many don’t. The unpaid position was miserable. I was treated in a manner commensurate with my pay. 👎🏼
