The 2024 June Bash returned to the RCYC on the Island on Monday, June 3rd. We were again lucky and enjoyed another lovely early summer evening as we had at the very successful post-pandemic 2023 June Bash.
The event ticket was $125 per person and it included:
a launch pass to the island;
a veranda reception with hors d’oeuvres from 6 -7;
followed by a fine dinner with wine in the ballroom.
Peter Baines again arranged for a short tour of the RCYC’s island facilities conducted by RCYC Archivist and Curator, Beverley Darville.
The Whiff is again privileged to hear from the eminent criminal lawyer, James Lockyer. He first spoke to us in April 2010 about “Wrongful Convictions in Canada“ and updated us again at the February 2022 Whiff@Home meeting on “Miscarriages of Justice in Canada“. As our April speaker, he will help us understand the current failings of the Canadian Bail Process, what has been done to try to fix it and discuss what he believes is necessary to protect the innocent and maintain the public’s confidence in the administration of justice.
