From public to legal service

Public Eye Online:

Tom Christensen may not have run for re-election. But that doesn't mean the former Campbell administration cabinet minister is staying out of public life. Last week, the Law Society of British Columbia notified members it had appointed Mr. Christensen to the Legal Services Society of British Columbia's board of director for a two-year term beginning September 7, 2009
--------------------

The Legal Services Society (LSS) is governed by a nine-member board of directors. Five of the directors are appointed by the province’s Lieutenant-Governor in Council, and four are appointed by the Law Society of BC. As a whole, the board must reflect a range of skills and experience in areas such as business management, law and the operation of courts, BC's cultural diversity, and the social and economic circumstances of people with low incomes. As individuals, each has demonstrated a commitment to helping the disadvantaged with their legal issues.
