        <h2 class="pageheadings"> Welcome to Law Day</h2>
        <p class="homepagedesc">Law Day is a national event celebrating the signing of Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Originated by the Canadian Bar Association and first held in Canada in 1983, Law Day is aimed at educating and informing
          the public about the role and importance of the law and the justice system. Law Day enhances the public’s understanding of the law, the role of lawyers and judges and empowers the public at large.</p>
        <p class="homepagedesc"> The OBA annually celebrates Law Day with three main programs: Elementary School Mock Trials (ESMT), OBA-OJEN Competitive and Alternative Mock Trials (OOCMT), and Your ChARTer. Please click on each program for more
          information.</p>
        <p class="homepagedesc"> We are excited to be offering on-demand videos, the Your ChARTer contest, and a virtual modified Mock Trial Program (OOCMT) through our continued partnership with OJEN. Although this year will be a little different,
          we are confident that we can provide an exciting and inspiring virtual program for students that will give them insight and understanding of our justice system.</p>
        <h2 class="pageheadings">
          <span class="purple">ESMT</span> <span class="gray">ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS MOCK TRIALS</span>
        </h2>
        <p class="homepagedesc"> The Elementary School Mock Trials (ESMT) is a free program offered by the Ontario Bar Association (OBA). This program can accommodate students from Grades 5 – 8.</p>
        <p class="homepagedesc"> This year we are offering teachers and students on-demand short video segments featuring a diverse range of the OBA’s volunteer lawyers, who provide age-appropriate overviews of key <em>Charter</em> and justice sector
          themes, including the history and ongoing importance of the <em>Charter</em>, a career as a lawyer, simple procedural courtroom examples, and pro-tips from art experts on capturing justice and the <em>Charter</em> in art. These tools will
          be available to teachers to download from our website, to help you incorporate elements of the history of the <em>Charter</em> into your curriculum. </p>
        <h2 class="pageheadings"><span class="purple">OOCMT</span><span class="gray"> OBA-OJEN Competitive and Alternative Mock Trials</span> </h2>
        <p class="homepagedesc">This secondary program is a partnership between the Ontario Bar Association (OBA), Ontario Bar Association Foundation, and the Ontario Justice Education Network (OJEN). The OBA and OJEN joined forces in 2014 to expand
          the program to more schools and communities across the province. This program can accommodate students from Grade 9-12 </p>

        <h2 class="pageheadings"><span class="purple">YOUR CHARTER</span><span class="gray"> CREATIVE ARTS COMPETITION</span> </h2>
        <p class="homepagedesc">The OBA’s<strong> “Your ChARTer 2024 Program” </strong>invites Ontario students to submit a visual, written, or creative piece of work that represents the core principles of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms
          and what it means to them. It offers students and/or classes an opportunity to use their imaginations and engage in artistic expression by exploring the impact of the Charter in an online art and writing competition. The contest is open to
          all Ontario students in Grades 5 – 12, who may participate as a class, group, or as individuals. Deadline for submissions are <strong>Monday, June 3nd, 2024</strong> </p>
        <p class="homepagedesc"> In 2021, we had the opportunity to join forces with the<strong> Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO),</strong> who shared their expertise on the different mediums of art and how we express ourselves using art by way of an
          educational video. Those videos remain available on this <a href="https://www.oba.org/LawDayOntario/Votre-ChARTe">website.</a></p>
        <p class="homepagedesc"> Show us your best form of creativity by submitting a piece of your visual, written or media work, to complete this idea for this years theme:</p>

WELCOME TO LAW DAY

Law Day is a national event celebrating the signing of Canada’s Charter of
Rights and Freedoms. Originated by the Canadian Bar Association and first held
in Canada in 1983, Law Day is aimed at educating and informing the public about
the role and importance of the law and the justice system. Law Day enhances the
public’s understanding of the law, the role of lawyers and judges and empowers
the public at large.

The OBA annually celebrates Law Day with three main programs: Elementary School
Mock Trials (ESMT), OBA-OJEN Competitive and Alternative Mock Trials (OOCMT),
and Your ChARTer. Please click on each program for more information.

We are excited to be offering on-demand videos, the Your ChARTer contest, and a
virtual modified Mock Trial Program (OOCMT) through our continued partnership
with OJEN. Although this year will be a little different, we are confident that
we can provide an exciting and inspiring virtual program for students that will
give them insight and understanding of our justice system.


ESMT ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS MOCK TRIALS

The Elementary School Mock Trials (ESMT) is a free program offered by the
Ontario Bar Association (OBA). This program can accommodate students from Grades
5 – 8.

This year we are offering teachers and students on-demand short video segments
featuring a diverse range of the OBA’s volunteer lawyers, who provide
age-appropriate overviews of key Charter and justice sector themes, including
the history and ongoing importance of the Charter, a career as a lawyer, simple
procedural courtroom examples, and pro-tips from art experts on capturing
justice and the Charter in art. These tools will be available to teachers to
download from our website, to help you incorporate elements of the history of
the Charter into your curriculum.


OOCMT OBA-OJEN COMPETITIVE AND ALTERNATIVE MOCK TRIALS

This secondary program is a partnership between the Ontario Bar Association
(OBA), Ontario Bar Association Foundation, and the Ontario Justice Education
Network (OJEN). The OBA and OJEN joined forces in 2014 to expand the program to
more schools and communities across the province. This program can accommodate
students from Grade 9-12

YOUR CHARTER CREATIVE ARTS COMPETITION

The OBA’s “Your ChARTer 2024 Program” invites Ontario students to submit a
visual, written, or creative piece of work that represents the core principles
of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and what it means to them. It
offers students and/or classes an opportunity to use their imaginations and
engage in artistic expression by exploring the impact of the Charter in an
online art and writing competition. The contest is open to all Ontario students
in Grades 5 – 12, who may participate as a class, group, or as individuals.
Deadline for submissions are Monday, June 3nd, 2024

In 2021, we had the opportunity to join forces with the Art Gallery of Ontario
(AGO), who shared their expertise on the different mediums of art and how we
express ourselves using art by way of an educational video. Those videos remain
available on this website.

Show us your best form of creativity by submitting a piece of your visual,
written or media work, to complete this idea for this years theme:

“ What the Charter means to me…”
