“Hello, just a quick note to let you know that your online videos and interactive youth videos are very much appreciated! I lead activities in high schools to educate young people about citizenship and their personal finances. I use your videos regularly, and if there were more, I’d share them with everyone! A big thank you and keep up the great work!”

“Your website is fantastic, well-constructed, and very well written. All the procedures you describe are also well explained. Bravo for this great tool! I must tell you that as a building inspector in a municipality, I use your site frequently. I regularly recommend it to citizens who turn to us for legal or law-related questions.”

“On several occasions, I’ve looked for information on labour standards, unemployment, rights in general, etc. I’d first look on sites that seemed to me to be “experts” on the subject. But each time, it was on your site that I found clear and understandable answers to my questions after an easy search of the site”

“In over 20 years, thousands of Jeannes, Emmas, Théos, Simons, and Arnauds have gained a better understanding of the world around them thanks to Éducaloi. By combining sensitivity, relevance, and creativity, Éducaloi has contributed to developing the legal skills of a whole generation of young citizens and, above all, to their confidence in the justice system. On their behalf, and on behalf of all the little Younès, Émiles, Mathildes, and Kiaras to come, I wish long life to Éducaloi!”

Co-Chairs of the Honour Committee

Me Alexandre Forest

Associate, Gowling WLG. Bâtonnier of Montreal (2019 to 2020)

At the start of the 2019 judicial year, when I presented Éducaloi with the Médaille du Barreau de Montréal, I described the organization as a leading player in the legal world, in line with the Bar’s mission to protect the public.

This is even truer today. Éducaloi’s relentless work to ensure that people know their rights and above all, understand them, is fundamental in a society where misinformation circulates more easily than ever.

On the eve of celebrating its 25th anniversary, Éducaloi’s relevance is self-evident. It’s an honour for me to help maintain and amplify Éducaloi’s impact for years to come.

Caroline Biron, Ad. E

Associate, Blakes

I am deeply honoured to co-chair this fundraising campaign to mark Éducaloi’s 25th anniversary. My interest in the organization stems not only from my admiration for its mission but also from the rigour with which it’s carried out.

As a litigator, I have often been called upon by friends and acquaintances for legal matters outside my field of expertise. I’ve always referred them to Éducaloi, and the feedback has invariably been positive.

I’m delighted to be involved in this campaign as co-chair and look forward to the progress we’ll make together.
