Me Julius Grey Associate Professor



Julius Grey: In Praise of Freedom
Mr. Julius Grey.
Photo: Gunther Gamper.
As part of a series of articles on major personalities who have furthered the cause of tolerance in Canada, Tolerance.ca® presents Mr. Julius Grey, a renowned Montreal lawyer and McGill University professor of law. A tireless fighter and man of conviction.

Julius Grey was born in 1948 in Poland, one of the countries most affected by World War II and the Nazi crimes. Life soon took him far from his homeland, as his Jewish parents decided to immigrate to Canada in 1957 to give their family a peaceful future. In post-war Poland, the spectre of the Holocaust still hung heavy on everyone's mind. But Julius was only a child, and of those few years spent in the land of Chopin, he says he has only good memories. He still maintains strong emotional ties with his native culture.

Notre politique linguistique: Une vache sacrée, une bête noire (DATE DE PARUTION 10 JUILLET 2008)

By Julius Grey on June 18, 2009

Manifestement injuste et exagérée lors de sa promulgation en 1977, la loi 101 a été modifiée et améliorée à tous les niveaux des cours de justice, y compris celles des Nations unies, ainsi que par le législateur. Devant la nécessité inébranlable de protéger et de promouvoir la langue française, et le besoin aussi impérieux de respecter les limites de la démocratie libérale et de préserver une place honorable pour la partie anglaise de notre héritage, cette loi, telle qu?amendée, constitue un compromis raisonnable, même si on peut continuer à discuter de certains détails et de son application...

On Quebec and identity

By Julius Grey on February 26, 2009

Voices have been heard again in Montreal?s English Community calling for action if the Quebec government tries to overturn a successful Bill 104 challenge through use of the ?notwithstanding clause?.  At the same time, criticism has been leveled against Quebec Ministers Kathleen Weil and Yolande James for not insisting more on the protection of English identity.  A new round of English complaints is unjustified, whatever happens to Bill 104, and the two ministers are clearly right in rejecting an exclusive English identity...

Multiculturalism questioned at fiery Fraser debate

By P.A. Sévigny on December 3, 2009

fraserinstituteprksfly_resize.jpgThe recent debate on the merits of Canadian multiculturalism between secular firebrand Djemila Benhabib and Montreal civil rights lawyer Julius Grey began to get personal after Benhabib accused the Canadian government of moral and intellectual cowardice. Hosted by the Fraser Institute at Peel Street’s Café Ferreira, an erudite crowd full of assorted academics and civil servants were especially eager to hear what Benhabib had to say about the province’s ongoing multiculturalism debate. Even as she read off a prepared text, Benhabib continued to insist responsible governments (especially those in the west) must continue to stick to their secular guns.

Sunday 15 February 2009 Julius Grey: “The paradoxes of reasonable accommodation”
(Policy Options September 2007) For Julius Grey, one of Quebec’s key experts in the field of civic liberties and human rights, individual freedom and effective integration of immigrants are the two fundamental reasons why accommodation is desirable in an open society such as Canada. Yet there are also some instances when accommodation is not desirable — for example, when it ends up victimizing innocent members of a group, such as in the case of blood transfusions for children, or when it ghettoizes a whole group, through the creation of separate schools, hospitals, or courts. “The word ‘reasonable’ when it precedes ‘accommodation’ is not a meaningless term of art,” says Grey. “Rather, it is a prism through which all accommodation must be seen and judged.”

Thursday Jun 19, 2008 Flag verdict on hold The Gazette
Theodore Antonopoulos will have to wait a few more months to find out the final verdict in his four-year battle with the city of Montreal after he painted a huge Greek flag on his garage doors during the Euro 2004 soccer finals.
The flag contravened a bylaw passed in 1990 when Pierrefonds was a separate municipality. (It merged with Montreal in 2002.) In 2004, a city inspector told Antonopoulos to remove the flag or face a $138 fine. Antonopoulos refused.
Last November, a municipal court judge ruled against Antonopoulos, but he appealed the verdict and his case was heard by Quebec Superior Court judge France Charbonneau yesterday.
Human-rights specialist Julius Grey, his lawyer, appealed to the judge to give Antonopoulos a constitutional exemption from the bylaw to keep his Greek flag as a form of political expression.
After packing up a pile of files more than eight inches thick, Charbonneau said she will render her decision "over the course of the summer."

Wednesday Apr 2, 2008 Julius Grey, the lawyer who the Marchildons contacted after RAMQ first refused to authorize treatment in the U.S., said yesterday that Quebec's Public Health Act and jurisprudence make it clear that Quebecers are entitled to life-saving treatment even if it's not available in the province.
He pointed to a 1999 Quebec case involving Barry Stein, a man who sought colon cancer treatment at Memorial Sloan- Kettering Cancer Centre in New York when treatment here was not available quickly enough.
RAMQ was ordered to pay for that treatment, Grey said.

Lawyer Julius Grey weighs a leap into federal politics

The Gazette

Published: 9 hours ago

Constitutional lawyer Julius Grey is pondering a step into federal politics, most likely as a candidate for the New Democratic Party.

"I haven't made up my mind; I'm weighing the pros and cons," Grey said yesterday in a telephone interview from his home.

On the heels of Thomas Mulcair's decisive victory for the NDP in a federal by-election in Outremont on Sept. 17, there has been a flurry of interest in signing up other well-known candidates to run in Quebec.

"I have been approached and I have been talking with friends," Grey said.

"This has come up before and I always said no before, but I will decide in a week or so," he added.

As for where he'd run if he did offer himself up as a candidate, he said it's too soon to speculate.

"I haven't gone there yet."

Julius Grey Attacks the New Prohibitionists

Loi 112
Excessif et Paternaliste!

Let the joy be unconfined! Canada’s leading constitutional and civil liberties attorney, Me. Julius Grey, has launched a court challenge to another piece of nanny-state fluff, Quebec’s proposed anti-smoking legislation Bill 112. What makes this law more draconian than most is that it not only outlaws smoking areas in bars and restaurants – in addition to all the current bans on smoking in public places – but adds three singularly egregious twists. No smoking at private parties on rented premises. No commercial establishments for smokers such as cigar lounges. No smoking within 30 metres of an entrance to a public building.

INSTITUTE COMMUNIQUÉ

 

Me. JULIUS GREY HONORED

Me Julius Grey Associate Professor Bio

Julius Grey

Dear Colleagues,

 

We are pleased to announce that Institute Council member Julius Grey has been awarded the highest distinction granted by the Barreau du Québec. He has been designated as the recipient of the "Médaille du Barreau du Québec" for 2004. It is a remarkable tribute to a remarkable man. The Médaille is accorded for career contributions to the pursuit of justice and the legal profession. In the words of the Barreau "...la Médaille est la plus haute distinction décernée par le Barreau du Québec et qu'elle souligne la contribution remarquable de juristes québécois à l'avancement du droit et de son exercice."

 

In its tribute, the Barreau stated that Me. Grey "...tout au long de sa carrière, contribué de façon exceptionelle à l'avancement de la société québécoise de même qu'au rayonnement des doits fondamentaux dont il est un ardent défenseur."

 

Julius Grey is one of Canada's leading civil libertarians and human rights advocates. He has built an unrivalled record as a champion of the underprivileged and the disenfranchised. Arguably Canada's leading constitutional authority, he is one of those rare successful blends of advocate and activist having argued countless cases before the Supreme Court particularly in the area of Charter Rights. Many of those were considered lost causes. Yet he has always known that the tough fights were the only ones really worth fighting for. An admirer once called him the attorney for the damned. Yet in his infectious passion he is a testament to Pascal's injunction "...de la pensée à l'action, sans oublier la sensation."

 

In addition to his extraordinary achievements at the bar, Me.Grey was a law professor at McGill for over twenty years. In addition to constitutional law, his teaching covered the breadth of administrative, federal and criminal matters. In 1984 he published Immigration Law in Canada. He has been involved in numerous associations such as the Canadian Foundation for Human Rights of which he was President from 1985-1988. He is a frequent contributor to many scholarly journals and makes it a point to regularly appear in popular print and electronic media in order to expand citizen awareness of, and engagement in, public policy issues.

He has been a professor of law at McGill University since 1979.
He has made many speeches and participated in conferences throughout the world (Switzerland, Cuba, United States, Quebec, Canada) about individual rights, the Constitution, and federalism. Mr. Grey is well known in Quebec for his frequent appearances on television, on radio, in newspapers and magazines to tackle news subjects on legal terms.
In addition to many articles, notes, and commentaries, he has published Immigration Law in Canada (Toronto, Butterworths, 1984).

Sunday 7 Mar 2004 MONTREAL: SIKH RULING OVERTURNED
Quebec Appeal Court has overturned a lower court ruling permitting the wearing of a ceremonial Sikh knife, the kirpan, in the province's schools. Appeal Court thus overturned a finding of Quebec Superior Court that the provincial government and school boards had appealed. The latest decision acknowledges that its own ruling offends freedom of religion but says the maintaining of order and safety in schools is more important. The family of Gurbaj Multani, the student at the centre of the affair, says it will in turn appeal the case to the Supreme Court of Canada.

July 29, 2002
Trial by jury not applicable to today, says lawyer Is there any better way to prosecute those who are members of gangs that operate outside the law? Not really, says McGill University law professor Patrick Healy. "The alternative to a megatrial or a joint trial is individual trials. And of the two options, the second is the worst," he said. "Imagine, for example, having to call and recall the same witnesses. And the trials, well, they last endlessly." Constitutional lawyer Julius Grey goes even further. "I'd get rid of juries in these cases altogether. Having judges alone hear these cases would lead to more justice, more reliability, and there would be less chance of current public opinion affecting a decision. "Listen, the whole idea of 12 of your peers was invented in the 13th century to ensure that noblemen would be tried by noblemen, burghers by burghers and so on. It's not terribly applicable today."

Montreal , QC June 4, 2002
On Thursday May 16th, 2002 Justice Danielle Grenier from the Quebec Superior Court heard arguments from lawyer Julius Grey, who represented Gurbaj and his family, and lawyers representing the Montreal French Language School Board, who supported the ban on the kirpan. On Friday May 16, 2002 , much to the dismay of the parents and school board, the Justice Grenier ruled in favour of Gurbaj saying he had the right to wear the kirpan because it is an integral part of his religious beliefs. Justice Grenier further ruled that the kirpan must be sheathed in a wooden case, wrapped in heavy fabric and worn under Gurbaj clothes. The belt holding kirban must be sewn onto Singh's clothing. Gurbaj could also be subject to inspection by school officials at any time.
Gurbaj is now back in school, wearing his Kirpan. But the case continues and on May 27th the Quebec government announced it intends to appeal the court-mediated compromise. Gurbaj's lawyer, Julius Grey, said he was disappointed but is confident of winning when this goes before a higher court.
"I'm very confident that this case is strong in the legal sense," Grey said. "I'm disappointed the government is dispensing time and energy on this,” stated Grey.

Westmount has its day in court By Martin C. Barry After months of preparation both publicly and behind closed doors, Westmount has finally pleaded its case against Bill 170 and forced mergers.
The first of 19 municipalities contesting the validity of the provincial law, Westmount presented its arguments to Judge Maurice Lagacé of Quebec Superior Court in Montreal's Palais de Justice on Tuesday,
with lawyers Julius Grey, Gérald Tremblay (not to be mistaken with the megacity mayoral candidate) and Jean Marois representing the City.
Pleading in French, they based their arguments on four fundamental claims: that the law surpasses the National Assembly's competence, that it threatens minority rights as guaranteed in the Canadian and Quebec charters of rights, that it would undermine democratic interaction, and that it discriminates and threatens the equality of people, in violation of the rights charters.

The Armée de sombres prévisions sur l’avenir du français à Montréal, a radical wing of the Parti Québécois, is demanding that allophones must attend French-language CEGEP. (La Presse 11/12/00) However, Montreal lawyer Julius Grey argued in his own brief to the estates-general commission that restricting access to English-language CEGEPs to English-speaking immigrants is a huge mistake. Grey states that it would be an unreasonable restriction on the academic freedom of adults. It would also weaken the existing English CEGEPs by reducing their student populations, and in the long run, English universities. Head commissioner Gérald Larose agreed, and said the Quebec government should guarantee English-speaking Quebecers their institutions, language and culture, while protecting French at the same time. “We recognize that there has been a loss in the numbers of members in the [English-speaking] community and…we consider that a loss for Quebec.”

May 2000 According to lawyers with the firm of civil rights attorney Julius Grey, there is a strong legal argument that the municipal by-law against postering is unconstitutional. The anti-postering law is an infringement to the right to free speech and free expression (not to mention effective speech and expression).

LIBERTÉ D'ASSOCIATION... OU PRESQUE [Version in English]

Montréal, ??
Immoral, perhaps; illegal, not!
The question of the legality of the relation sadomaso is not limpid. On the one hand, any sexual intercourse between agreeing adults is not judicious to relate to the law. However, as the law stipulates that one cannot grant body wounds, the legal remedy of the maso against its sadomasochistic is always possible. "It there has also the question of the concept of coarse indecency, adds Maître Julius Grey [Version en français]

Postering "decriminalized" in Montreal Civil liberties hotshot, Julius Grey, agreed to represent me for free. He was confident that the City's by-laws wouldn't stand up in court. If I won the case, activists and artists across Quebec and Canada would have the useful right to poster on city property without worrying about fines or criminal charges; if I lost, I owed the City of Montreal $135.

Dec 1998 Montreal Anti-hunger Activists Released with New Bail Conditions On Friday, noted constitutional and civil-rights lawyer Julius Grey defended the cause of three of the activists: Luc Brisbois, who provisionally accepted his release conditions, and the two imprisoned men, Alexandre Popovic and Yves Manseau. Grey argued that the total ban on participation from demonstrating amounts to a violation of freedoms enshrined in the Canadian charter of rights. It should be enough to simply ask that they keep the peace. When Popovic was asked why he did not accept the bail conditions, he replied that the condition to not demonstrate amounts to a false liberty. "in jail, there's no ambiguity" he added. His conscience would not have allowed him to bow to such suffocating release conditions, even if only to contest them from the outside, he indicated to the prosecutor. The testimony from the police official was typically authoritarian: He said the activists "questioned the authority of police... they shouted slogans and questioned the establishment"

Initially, Julius Grey affirms that, generally, in the modern democracies, it is the executive which controls. It claims that it is this level of the capacity, which has the most influence and of power. For its part, Michel Freitag supports that the political apparatus faced an increasing incapacity "to assume the responsibility for the legislation, and this on the one hand on the level of the operation of the political mechanisms [... ] and on the other hand, on the level of of its legitimacy [... in short, it faces ] a kind of increasing political impotence maintains, which became an established fact".
