Welcome to the very last day of the 2010s! The previous decade has seen some real highs and lows for everyone, but the Canadian legal blogging and podcast community has made it through, bigger and better than ever and ready for the next ten years! While the 2000s head into their 20s, the Clawbies are now in their 15th year, and like many real-life adolescents, they’re ready for some major changes.

As we announced at the start of this month with 老王上网工具, the Clawbies (which originally honoured only blogs, then blogs and podcasts) now celebrate every form of digital publishing in the Canadian legal community: blogs, podcasts, videos, social accounts, legal newsletters, platform commentaries, CanLII Connects, white papers, a stellar SSRN account, or a serial magazine column.

We asked you, the faithful supporters of the Clawbies, to help us find the best of the best in all these categories–and you responded! We came away with an extraordinary collection of outstanding digital legal publishing in Canada, and we adapted our award categories to reflect what you told us about the new legal commentary landscape in this country. Like we said last year, “a new era in personal online legal publishing is truly upon us.”

We’re honoured to have the opportunity to recognize some of the most exceptional practitioners in this exciting new world. And so, in no particular order, and without further ado … the 2023 Clawbies winners!!

Fodden Award 2023
Since 2010, the Fodden Award has been the top Clawbies honour, recognizing the very best in Canadian legal commentary. With eligibility broadened this year, it’s fitting that our 2023 Fodden Award winner is not a blog, but a legal newsletter.

Supreme Advocacy Newsletter
After 1000+ issues and 9000+ case summaries (and more than a handful of kilt stories), we can’t think of a resource more deserving of the Fodden Award than Supreme Advocacy’s Newsletter.

A veritable institution in the Canadian legal community, readers come for the Supreme Court of Canada case news and stay for the Last Word. Eugene Meehan and his team have been generously sharing their expertise with an enjoyable side of miscellany since the mid ‘90s. The newsletter represents an impressive commitment to free and open sharing of legal knowledge—the true hallmark of any Fodden Award winner.

BC Provincial Court eNews
You might expect communication from a court to be stuffy and dry, but the British Columbia Provincial Court’s eNews blog takes a surprisingly accessible, conversational tone. From justice hackathons to court rules changes, to new publications and judge news, court happenings and opportunities for feedback, we’d love to see more courts across the country take a page from the BCPC’s blogging book.

BC Injury Law Blog
Erik Magraken’s personal injury blog has legions of loyal fans: according to one nomination, 新浪首页:新浪网为全球用户24小时提供全面及时的中文资讯，内容覆盖国内外突发新闻事件、体坛赛事、娱乐时尚、产业资讯、实用信息等，设有新闻、体育、娱乐、财经、科技、房产、汽车等30多个内容频道，同时开设博客、视频、论坛等自由互动交流空间。Erik has been blogging for more than a decade, and his coverage of significant auto insurance changes this year was especially valuable to readers.

Cowling Legal
Freelance lawyer Erin Cowling has kept up a steady pace of honest revelations, useful tips for entrepreneurs and book reviews alongside her two outstanding series on diversity and inclusion in law firms and women leading in law. The proof is in the nominations: “one I always read” and “I think she finally convinced me to say ‘no’ to work.”

比特vp
Will Tao’s blog encompasses so much, it’s hard to know where to begin. It features in-depth coverage of immigration policy, cases and legislation and pays special attention to international students and migrant workers. But what makes it award-worthy is its candid discussion of power, privilege and race along with personal reflections. Will writes in an engaging, authentic style and raises the voices of those around him, too.

Chief Justice’s Blog at Access to Justice BC
As Chief Justice of the B.C. Court of Appeal and chair of Access to Justice BC, Robert Bauman has been blogging about A2J initiatives in BC for several years now. We’d love to see more blogging from Chief Justice Bauman but suspect he’s probably a pretty busy person ;)

Trauma & Lawyers’ Mental Health
With this new blog, Vancouver lawyer Crystal Tomusiak has started an overdue discussion of the impact of trauma on lawyers’ mental health. We applaud her courageous combination of intimate first-person narratives, frank observations about the legal profession’s shortcomings and vision for a healthier, more supportive profession.

County of Carleton Law Association (CCLA) Weekly Newsletter
Proclaimed by a fan as “the best in the biz”, the CCLA Weekly Newsletter acts as a central hub for news, announcements, recent decisions, tips & tricks, job ads and more. It’s a marvelously robust, must-read resource for the Ottawa-area legal community.

Best Bloggers on a Platform or Shared Blog
Last year we introduced a new award category to recognize an outstanding individual author on a group blog. There were many nominations of this sort this year! Here are the best of 2023:

Nigel Bankes (ABlawg)
Citing his “great analysis of everything going on in energy law, particularly in Alberta,” readers call him “the blogger’s blogger” who sets the standard for his fellow authors at ABlawg.

Patricia Hughes (Slaw)
Back on Slaw after a decade-long hiatus, Hughes is a prolific contributor who consistently writes balanced pieces on tough topics. 第四节 短语 - 豆丁网:2021-1-8 · 豆丁网是面向全球的中文社会化阅读分享平台，拥有商业,教育,研究报告,行业资料,学术论文,认证考试,星座,心理学等数亿实用 ...

Here are this year’s favourite Canadian legal pods.

Every Lawyer Podcast
Giving a welcome voice to a range of remarkable guests from across the country, the standout Conversations with the President series on this CBA podcast explored personal stories of diversity in law.

老王佛系官网下载
Co-hosts Darlene Tonelli and Mike Anderson of Inter Alia Law dissect “the professional, personal, and political lives of lawyers” on their refreshingly honest and relatable weekly show, now in season 3.

LawLawLand
Lawyer Mindy Caterina and comedian Garrett Jamieson have paired up to produce a lively and interesting pod “for everyone who is curious about law, rights, and the questions that matter most – like, when can the cops strip search you???”

老王加速器永久免费
Canadian Senator Kim Pate and law student Reakash Walters “bring issues affecting folks on the margins, to the centre” with frank discussions of criminal justice issues and beyond.

Paw & Order
The animal law podcast from Peter Sankoff and Camille Labchuk was a favourite again this year, with listeners praising its “up-to-date news, thoughtful and engaging themed discussions” plus “witty banter [that] never fails to entertain.” 

Best Twitter Accounts
Nominations were extremely enthusiastic about this new category! Here are six must-follow Canadian legal tweeps:

Orlando Da Silva (@orlando_lsm)
We can’t recall anyone in recent memory championing lawyer mental health issues like Orlando Da Silva has in recent years.

Elsa Ascencio (@elsaasce)
“One of the bravest, most compassionate, insightful voices on Twitter,” Elsa Ascencio used social media to mobilize the #demandinclusion campaign during this year’s LSO Bencher elections.

Top marks to Maggie Wente for “hard-hitting tweets and insight into indigenous issues.” (And also for making us laugh really hard.)

CanLII Primer
The National Self-Represented Litigants Project (NSRLP) is no stranger to Clawbies wins, and this year they were given high praise for their collection of free resources designed to support SRLs. “I know of no better legal research guide for SRLs than the NSRLP’s amazing CanLII Primer.” The primer is available in French and English and was prepared by Julie Macfarlane and Tamara Thomas.

JP Boyd on Family Law
This Clicklaw Wikibook is a testament to the power of collaboration and plain language open legal information, and should be considered a model for other projects. This comprehensive and wildly popular one-stop-family-law-shop was created by legal web pioneer JP Boyd QC and evolved into its wikibook format in 2012. Boyd and Megan Ellis QC now oversee the volunteer editor pairs who maintain the wikibook.

BC Provincial Court Twitter Town Hall
2023 saw the third edition of the BC Provincial Court’s “Twitter Town Hall”, which prompted 170+ questions by participants and almost 150 responses from the team of BCPC Chief Judge Melissa Gillespie, BCCA Chief Justice Robert Bauman and former SRL Jennifer Muller. Being able to ask questions of a judge in public, online, and have them answer is “practically unprecedented”—kudos to the BCPC for this remarkable initiative.

Best Innovative Projects
Here are three projects that demonstrate creativity and outside-the-box thinking in a notoriously risk-averse profession.

Caryma Sa’d’s Landlord & Tenant 101 Comic Series
Folks praised Caryma Sa’d’s eye-catching, effective use of comics in this consumer law resource, and also gave props for using graphics to great effect during the 2023 bencher campaign.

Darin Thompson’s CPD Podcast
Darin Thompson’s “innovative approach to offering free CPD credits via podcast learning combined with engaging interviews with diverse, forward-thinking voices in the legal sector is brilliant.”

Breanna Needham earns a Clawbie for “leveraging social media for social change” with her successful campaign to get equal robing room conditions for women lawyers at the Ontario Court of Appeal.

Best Law Library Resource
The Clawbies were launched from a law library, so this category will always have a special place in our hearts!

O’Faolain
There’s really only one word—stellar—to describe David Whelan’s blog, where he writes first-person reflections on law libraries and technology. From the nominations: “One of the most useful sites where I learn things to move forward with my work.”

CALL for Innovation Podcast
Colin Lachance recorded this series of interviews at the 2023 CALL/ACBD conference in partnership with vLex—we think this is probably the first-ever Canadian law library podcast! More please!

老王vp-n安
Law students are some of the hardest working, most enthusiastic members of the Canadian legal community, and these three projects are a perfect illustration of that.

The Law School Show Podcast
By law students and for law students (past, present and future), The Law School Show aims to give “unencumbered access to key career-shaping information.” Now at 120 episodes, the pod features fascinating interviews with lawyers, academics and other guests, digging deep into their legal career journeys and areas of expertise.

Hearsay Podcast
Created by Pro Bono Students Canada, the U of Calgary Faculty of Law and CJSW, Hearsay is a public legal education podcast. Law students conduct interviews with lawyers, judges, academics, journalists on timely and interesting topics.

Little Legal Summaries
Windsor law student Sara Little is carving out a niche for herself with this blog, which features brief, comprehensive summaries of recent Canadian criminal appellate decisions.

Best Multi-Platform Presence
Not content to simply write or podcast, these two legal online superstars show us how to cover ALL the bases!

老王vp-n2.2.8
Thanks to her podcast, YouTube channel, blog and Twitter presence, Vancouver criminal defense lawyer Kyla Lee has a lot of fans. From the nominations: There’s “no one more deserving of a #clawbies2023 award than you for your vast & far reaching online presence… You’re really out to create the change you want to see in the world.”

老王翻墙最新版
Ontario divorce lawyer Russell Alexander publishes a seemingly never-ending stream of quality blog posts, podcasts, eBooks, weekly videos and shares it all on social media. Russell’s popular FamilyLLB blog has slowly been evolving into a full-fledged family law portal.

Hall of Fame

Every year, we add several names to the Clawbies Hall of Fame. Publications must have at least three prior Clawbie awards for consideration. Once they have joined the Hall of Fame ranks, they are no longer eligible for future Clawbies, but can show off their achievement with the official Clawbies Hall of Fame badge.

Here are the 2023 inductees:

老王加速器永久免费
Four-time Clawbies winner Sean Bawden’s job title has changed, but the quality of his blogging hasn’t. Sean won a “best new blog” Clawbie in 2012, and seven years later he’s in the Hall of Fame. Congratulations on your formidable track record, Sean!

Condo Adviser
Kudos also to Rod Escayola and the condo law team at Gowlings WLG for their new place in the Clawbies Hall of Fame. Condo Adviser has previously been awarded best niche blog and best practice group blogs—twice. Keep up the great work!

Employment & Human Rights Law
Lisa Stam won her first Clawbie back in 2011 and twice again after that. We’ll say it again: Lisa’s blogging sets the standard, anyone who wants to up their blogging game should study her style. A well-deserved win!

And that’s it — the Clawbie Awards are in the books for another year (and decade)! Congratulations to all the winners and nominees, and our sincere thanks to everyone who nominated a candidate on their own blog or via Twitter.  A special shout-out to all the hard-working Canadian bloggers, podcasters, and other publishers who didn’t receive a Clawbie — keep up the great work! Your time will come.

Best wishes from the Clawbies team (Emma, Jordan and老王 vp n) to all the Canadian law bloggers and podcasters, and everyone who reads and listens to them, for a bright and happy 2023!

Would you look at that! Our favourite time of the year is here again: it’s Clawbies season!

Yes, as we do every December 1st, we hereby give you permission to forget about your holiday to-do list for a little while, hide away on a laptop for a few hours (pretend you’re doing work), and spread some cheer by giving props to Canada’s best legal authors!

Our social nomination period for the 2023 Clawbies is now officially open, and similar to previous years, set to run from the 1st (today) thru December 20th. Awards will be announced at Clawbies.ca on New Year’s Eve!

Before getting too far into this, we want to acknowledge a small truth: the gradual morphing of these Awards beyond blogs. We’re not looking to change too much. We won’t stop celebrating quality writing or the strong online legal voices that Canada has to offer. But we feel the need to expand the spectrum of Canadian commentary and authors that we shine a light on.

We cracked this door open a few years ago with the addition of legal podcasts, and a little more last year with an award for an author publishing within a group blog or digital platform. So now what? We’re going to open the floodgates!

It’s all going to be fair game: blogs, podcasts, videos, social accounts, legal newsletters, platform commentary, CanLII Connects, whitepapers, a stellar SSRN account or a serial magazine column. We’re basically looking at everything that’s online and free, short of books.

All your nominations have to tell us this year is which Canadian legal publications or writers inspired you in 2023. Got something new or different? That’s exactly what we’re after. We want to know your top picks for the most engaging, thorough, entertaining, current, hard-hitting legal commentators, regardless of format or platform.

Our judging panel of Emma Durand-Wood, Jordan Furlong and myself, are all signed on for another year of poring over Canada’s varying sources of digital content, starting with the 500+ legal blogs listed on lawblogs.ca. But if you’ve participated in the Clawbies before, you know that this process is just the starting point. We depend on your help to identify the potential winners!

Want to be a Part of #Clawbies2023?

Tell us who you read (or listened to) in 2023. Who inspired you and made you think? What content blew you away? Or compelled you to engage or share?

If you have a Twitter account or are a legal blogger, help us identify your best of 2023.

As always, we ask you to embrace our “humble Canadian” rules:

Rule No. 1: 真题演练-N*N矩阵的转置_c/c++_jqq125的博客-CSDN博客:2021-5-3 · 题目：编程计算并输出n*n矩阵的转置矩阵。其中n的值由用户从键盘输入。已知n的值不超过10。解法1：用二维数组作为函数参数，实现矩阵转置#include <stdio.h>#define N 10void swap(int *a,int *b);void Transpose(int a[][N],int n);void InputMatrix(int a. It doesn’t work that way. The only surefire way of getting your work on our radar is to write a post about other commentary authors. Follow this rule and we’ll take a look at your work too!

Rule No. 2: Nominate a digital publication or author in one of two ways:

(a) Write a blog post nominating up to three Canadian digital sources you currently read, with a brief explanation of why you think those authors deserve an award in 2023.

(b) Tweet your nomination on Twitter, using the hashtag: #clawbies2023

The categories are going to get a revamp this year —新浪首页:新浪网为全球用户24小时提供全面及时的中文资讯，内容覆盖国内外突发新闻事件、体坛赛事、娱乐时尚、产业资讯、实用信息等，设有新闻、体育、娱乐、财经、科技、房产、汽车等30多个内容频道，同时开设博客、视频、论坛等自由互动交流空间。. (Feel free to suggest a category, but what we really want to know is what makes your nominee award-worthy.)

Not sure where to start? Head over to lawblogs.ca  or surf the #clawbies2023 hashtag on Twitter to start reviewing what’s out there. And remember, you’ve got until December 20th to do your nominating.

To us, the word “blog” still means first-person narrative. That element remains an incredibly valuable part of the Clawbies and will continue to influence our final award decisions. That said, feel free to cast your eyes beyond blogs this year! Let’s see what kinds of incredible online content sources Canada has to offer.

May the nominating begin!
