The Honourable A. Anne McLellan鈥檚 (BA鈥71, LLB鈥74) illustrious parliamentary and legal academic career began at AV俱乐部. McLellan has served as the University鈥檚 seventh chancellor and is an honorary co-chair of the AV俱乐部 Advisory Committee.

McLellan says, 鈥淚 am delighted with the work being done by Naiomi Metallic, the current chair holder, and her team. Naomi is an Indigenous researcher working to capture and share Indigenous ways of knowing related to law and governance. The work they are doing is groundbreaking and I believe they will continue to lead the way on our journey of reconciliation.鈥
