About Us - The Gale Cup
The annual Gale Cup Moot Court Competition began in 1974 when the
Canadian Bar Association-Ontario agreed to sponsor the competition in
recognition of the Honourable George Gale, former Chief Justice of
Ontario. The Competition is held annually at Osgoode Hall in
Toronto.
In 1991, the American College of Trial Lawyers, in recognition
of Mr. Justice Brian Dickson's outstanding contribution to
Canada’s common law jurisprudence, donated the Dickson Medal
honouring former Chief Justice Dickson. Chief Justice Dickson was
a particularly devoted friend of the College and an Honorary
Fellow. The medal was created by Kenneth Jarvis, Q.C., former
Secretary of the Law Society of Upper Canada, and is awarded annually to
the student or students who demonstrate excellence in oral advocacy at
the Gale Cup Moot Competition.
