HALIFAX A former provincial ombudsman heading up an external review of systemic discrimination in the Nova Scotia Barristers Society says he s aiming to complete his work in eight to 10 months. Douglas Ruck, a lawyer with a background in labour and human rights law, was appointed in April to head up the review and says he is working with the society to determine the resources needed to carry out the work. He said Tuesday the matter of inequality has been brought to the fore throughout society, including through the Black Lives Matter movement, and it is the appropriate time to look into ways to improve inclusiveness at the body that regulates the legal profession.
