There was no evidence to support such a view. Further, the SCC rightly opined that \u201cit is difficult to see how the same logic would not result in the denial of accreditation to members of a particular church. The diversity of Canadian society is partly reflected in the multiple religious organizations that mark the societal landscape and this diversity of views should be respected.\u201d<a title=\"\" href=\"#_edn7\">[vii]<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Despite the recent opposition by virtually all of the law faculties and law deans across Canada, the BC Law Society felt it was compelled to abide by the law.&nbsp; That is as it should be.&nbsp; To have gone against TWU would have been to ignore the 2001 ruling of the SCC.<\/p>\n<p>I am reminded of a conversation in Robert Bolt\u2019s play <i>A Man For All Seasons<\/i> between Sir Thomas Moore and his son-in-law about giving the Devil the benefit of the law:<\/p>\n<p><b>William Roper:<\/b> So, now you give the Devil the benefit of law!<\/p>\n<p><b>Sir Thomas More:<\/b> Yes! What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?<\/p>\n<p><b>William Roper:<\/b> Yes, I&#8217;d cut down every law in England to do that!<\/p>\n<p><b>Sir Thomas More:<\/b> Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned &#8217;round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man&#8217;s laws, not God&#8217;s! And if you cut them down, and you&#8217;re just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I&#8217;d give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety&#8217;s sake!<\/p>\n<p>More&#8217;s&nbsp;point was that even though&nbsp;he did not agree with his opponent he would give his opponent the benefit of the law.&nbsp; That appears to have been what was going on with the BC Law Society.&nbsp; They did not agree with TWU but, thankfully, they supported the rule of law.<\/p>\n<p>We now await word from the Nova Scotia Barrister\u2019s Society, The Law Society of Upper Canada, and The Law Society of New Brunswick.<\/p>\n<div>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\">\n<div>\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"#_ednref1\">[i]<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/twu.ca\/studenthandbook\/university-policies\/community-covenant-agreement.html\">http:\/\/twu.ca\/studenthandbook\/university-policies\/community-covenant-agreement.html<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"#_ednref2\">[ii]<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/twu.ca\/studenthandbook\/university-policies\/community-covenant-agreement.html\">http:\/\/twu.ca\/studenthandbook\/university-policies\/community-covenant-agreement.html<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"#_ednref3\">[iii]<\/a> http:\/\/www.news1130.com\/2014\/04\/11\/law-society-of-bc-moves-to-reject-faculty-of-law-at-trinity-western-university\/comment-page-1\/#comments<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"#_ednref4\">[iv]<\/a> http:\/\/www.news1130.com\/2014\/04\/11\/law-society-of-bc-moves-to-reject-faculty-of-law-at-trinity-western-university\/comment-page-1\/#comments<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"#_ednref5\">[v]<\/a> <i>Trinity Western University v.
