Ottawa-based Amanda, a.k.a. Legally Purdy discusses lawfare in Canada, including the Helen Grus case, how one can defend & represent oneself in court, working in Asia, her awakening & much more.
Looked up lawfare - normally wouldn't go to wiki but this sounds like what I thought it was and was right up there on the search page.
And it sounds illegal (subverting justice, abuse of inherent/civil and protected rights, etc. ) to me, especially when used by public employees against a member of the public that's paying their salaries.

Thanks for the great discussion, I definitely need to include more independent Canadian voices into my attention. It sounds like Amanda does excellent work!
