Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network

Stop Criminalization!
On February 8, 2012, the Supreme Court of Canada hears two landmark cases on the criminalization of HIV non-disclosure — and the Legal Network will be there as an intervener. Find out more about why we think the misuse of the criminal law amounts to a miscarriage of justice and get involved in supporting change at www.aidslaw.ca/stopcriminalization.

Mandatory Minimum Sentences: Why Everyone Loses
Ottawa’s introduction of an Omnibus Crime Bill again ignores the damaging effects of mandatory minimum sentences for certain drug crimes. Read our briefing paper on the lose–lose situation created by such measures.

Affordable Medicines for All
People in developing countries are dying because they can’t afford the medicines they need to survive. Help us help them. Support the campaign to fix Canada’s Access to Medicines Regime — and stay tuned for upcoming announcements on the introduction of new bills in the House and Senate.
