CanLII Adds Past Ontario Cases

By Simon Fodden

Let me quote from the Thursday news release on the CanLII site:

Thanks to a grant from the Law Foundation of Ontario, the following additions have been made on CanLII:

• All Supreme Court of Canada cases originating from Ontario back to 1876 in searchable HTML and PDF-image format (2,100 cases)
• All Court of Appeal for Ontario cases that were appealed at the Supreme Court of Canada (1,300 cases)
• All reported Ontario Superior Court of Justice cases back to 1994 (3,500 cases)

This project added 100,000 pages of historical material on CanLII. CanLII wishes to sincerely thank the Law Foundation of Ontario and the Supreme Court of Canada for making this project possible.

This is wonderful news. Congratulations CanLII, the Law Foundation and the Supreme Court.
