Being here, participating here, even lurking here is a constant learning experience. But it’s not mandatory reading and couldn’t be made mandatory. If there were an “L” after our Simon’s names, it would stand for leader, not Legree. [g]
My point? New Jersey has announced that CLE will be mandatory for its lawyers. (The Law.com article [1] indicates that CLE is already mandatory in 43 US states.) If even New Jersey sees the merits of mandatory CLE, can Ontario be far behind? (Just kidding, folks. Everybody knows that Ontario’s legal education system for students and lawyers is the best of all worlds. That’s why “The Sopranos” takes place in New Jersey, not Ontario, right?)
