Todd Ducharme becomes Canada’s first Métis judge. Todd Ducharme was a lawyer with an impressive record when he was appointed to the Superior Court of Justice in Ontario. Educationally, he held a BA from McGill University, an MA and master of laws from Yale University and a law degree from the University of Toronto. As a practicing lawyer, he gained notoriety for his work in criminal and aboriginal law. He was popular with his peers, elected as a bencher with the Law Society of Upper Canada (Ontario’s law society), then re-elected in 2003 with the most votes of any Toronto candidate, and the second most of any in Ontario. On May 7, 2004, when Canada’s minister of justice appointed Ducharme a judge, Ducharme also made history as the first Métis to hold such a post. Many Canadians applauded his appointment and expressed surprise that it had taken so long for a Métis to fill the position.
