Just because there's an article that mentions his name doesn't mean that he's
notable, which is what this discussion is about. Dusti*Let's talk!* 19:20, 10 August 2014 (UTC)reply
Delete I'd CSD this, but there's an assertion of notability, hence why we're here. He fails
basic, as there isn't the slightest hint of him being notable outside of mentions of basic court cases. While he may appear in newspapers, most lawyers do at some point or another. I don't see any significant coverage or anything that should put him above or beyond the other thousands of lawyers in Canada. It's entirely possible this could be a promo with the new note saying he'd do things "pro bono" in "certain circumstances". Dusti*Let's talk!* 19:24, 10 August 2014 (UTC)reply
Delete Sorry, I have to go with delete. He needs articles from reliable sources written about him in detail. Mentions in an attorneys directory might be more appropriate until articles outside Wikipedia show notability.

Delete as not meeting notability guidelines. I would point out too that having an article in Wikipedia is never favorable to its subject. This is the encyclopedia that anyone can and does edit and is also usually the first hit on Google queries. Personally I would rather the first hit for my name be a website I controlled.
