You mean you had an LLM write it. This is the second time you’ve done that in this conversation. Please stop. It’s giving you incorrect or misleading information. Bona fide lawyers are finding themselves subject to disciplinary action for relying on LLMs, which have been found to falsify law and cases: https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/us-appeals-court-or...
Please, I beg you, go talk to your colleagues instead of armchair lawyering here. The law does not always adhere to dictionary definitions. It has been interpreted over the centuries and courts follow those interpretations. Besides, “Encourages” is a different word than “abets,” and merely offering support in the verbal or spiritual sense is very unlikely to lead to prosecution and conviction. If you can find a single case in Canada where this has happened, show us the proof.
I’m not “trolling,” I am a lawyer myself with 3 years of formal training, a Bar license, and decades of continuing education.
If you give me the number of your law firm, I will gladly call them myself.
I literally copy and pasted both quotes in my messages from the websites also referenced.
I highly doubt you are a lawyer.
Happy to send you my bona fides. Email me at otterley at otterley dot org. Please include your firm's phone number.
