Statement on Law Society of Alberta proceedings against John Carpay

Share this:

In 2021, the Law Society of Alberta delegated disciplinary proceedings against John Carpay, for a matter involving surveillance of various Manitoba government officials including a judge, to the Law Society of Manitoba.

In August 2021, the Alberta Law Society wrote a letter to a complainant, explaining in unequivocal language that it was delegating disciplinary proceedings to the Manitoba Law Society. The Alberta Law Society stated that it was closing its file, and not taking any further steps.

The Manitoba Law Society proceedings against John Carpay took place over a period of two years, and were finally concluded in August 2023. Sanctions were imposed on Mr. Carpay: to pay $5,000 and to respect a lifetime ban on practicing law in Manitoba.

In October 2023, Manitoba Crown Prosecutors stayed all criminal charges against Mr. Carpay, who was innocent of any criminal wrongdoing.

The Alberta Law Society then commenced brand new disciplinary proceedings against John Carpay, regarding matters that had been fully dealt with by the Manitoba Law Society and concluded in 2023. A hearing was scheduled for May 28, 2025.

Mr. Carpay and the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms remain focused on their mission to defend the constitutional freedoms of all Canadians.
