Weekdays:   I am the  Litigation Director for the Canadian Constitution Foundation,
"freedom's defence team".  The CCF is a non-partisan, charitable organization engaged in public interest litigation.  We provide courtroom assistance to individuals whose freedoms have been violated by government—whether federal, provincial or municipal.

Weekends:  I am also a writer.  From 1990 to  2006, I wrote the Back Page column  in Canadian Lawyer magazine.  From 2004 to 2007, I debated social conservative Michael Coren bi-weekly in The Western Standard.  Since October, 2007 I have freelanced in a wide variety of newspapers and magazines including  The Globe and Mail, The National Post, The Ottawa Citizen, The Vancouver Sun, Fraser Forum and The Freeman.  My subjects are items of current interest, including recent court decisions.   The political philosophy expressed in my writing is called "libertarian" or "classical liberal".

I am also on the Board of Directors of  Civitas, and the Board of Directors of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.

Personal:  I live in eastern Ontario with my husband and dog.
