🎉 Reflecting, celebrating, and looking ahead 💫 At Cochrane Sinclair LLP, we’re proud to work hard to make a difference—but we also know the importance of pausing to celebrate the moments that matter. Last week, we came together at the beautiful Cibo Waterfront for our holiday party. It was an evening filled with laughter, connection, and gratitude—a chance to reflect on our achievements and the incredible team that makes them possible. As we close the year, we’re reminded of how fortunate we are to have a firm that values excellence, collaboration, and celebrating the season in style. Here’s to more milestones, more success, and more reasons to celebrate in 2025. 🥂🎉 These moments remind us how meaningful it is to work with a team that’s not just dedicated, but also inspiring.

🌟 A celebration of Justice, Equity, and Reconciliation. 🌟 Last Friday, we hosted a gathering to commemorate the Children’s Special Allowance (CSA) case victory — a landmark achievement for Indigenous rights and justice. The CSA is a federal payment meant to ensure children in care receive the same financial support as children living at home. For years, CSA funds were unfairly withheld or clawed back from Indigenous agencies and First Nations Child and Family Services, denying vital resources to the very children they were meant to support. This legal battle we proudly led challenged these systemic inequities. The victory ensures that CSA funds are returned to Indigenous agencies and children where they rightfully belong, setting a powerful precedent for accountability and equity. The celebration was a heartfelt acknowledgment of the community members, leaders, and clients who made this milestone possible. From moving speeches to moments of cultural reflection, it was a day to honour progress and reaffirm our shared commitment to reconciliation #IndigenousRights #JusticeForAll #CSA #CochraneSinclair #Reconciliation #Leadership #CommunityFirst #Equity
