The Alberta Civil Liberties Research Centre is a Canadian non-governmental, non-profit organization.
We appreciate the contributions made by
donors and volunteers, and rely on the support of various
agencies in Canada,
including the Alberta Law Foundation.
This site provides information about human rights law and
civil liberties. Legal information is not the same as legal advice as to the application
of law to an individual's specific circumstances. We cannot offer legal advice
in response to specific problems. We strongly recommend that you consult a lawyer if you
need such help.
