Carney Picks Next Supreme Court Justice

Prime Minister Mark Carney is set to name Canada’s next Supreme Court justice before month’s end, filling a vacancy that’s been open since May 30. With only two top contenders—Manitoba’s Chief Justice Glenn Joyal, a decade-long veteran known for his First Nations self-governance ruling, and Alberta judge Anna Loparco, celebrated for family law expertise and multilingual fluency—the selection process is narrowing. Both candidates champion access to justice for French speakers, and despite the board’s unusually limited slate, officials say the pace is swift. After cabinet approval and a parliamentary hearing, the appointment could be finalized by June’s end. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
