CanLII Publishes One Millionth case

CanLII, the law society-funded Canadian Legal Information Institute that makes Canadian legal information available for free on the Internet, has published its 1,000,000th case:

"There are now one million Canadian court and tribunal decisions freely available over the internet, courtesy of the Canadian Legal Information Institute (CanLII). It has taken 12 years for this comprehensive online legal resource to reach the one million mark, a total that includes judgments from more than 200 legal sources."

"The one millionth judgment loaded into the CanLII database was a judgement from the Supreme Court of Canada."

The landmark was reached with the publishing of the S.L. v. Commission scolaire des Chênes case on Friday.
