#UAlbertaLaw LLM student Lindsay Borrows examines how the land we live on can be a vibrant legal resource. I think we’re too focused on the written text in our legal reasoning in Canada, and being so narrowly focused we’re missing out on an incredibly deep and rich resource in the very land around us for making better decisions, says the new master’s student, who is working under the supervision of Prof. Hadley Friedland. http://ow.ly/LjJh50CpeI0
