Cusli lecture focuses on boundary waters conflict
October 1, 2014
Chi Carmody and Gordon Walker
Commissioner Gordon Walker of the International Joint Commission delivered the seventh annual Canada-U.S. Law Institute distinguished lecture at Western Law this past fall.
In his lecture “The Boundary Waters Treaty – A Peace Treaty?” Walker outlined the history of the Boundary Waters Treaty of 1909 between Canada and the United States and delved into the treaty’s operation and record.
Walker highlighted the treaty’s definition of boundary waters and its creation of an International Joint Commission that helped end the many conflicts over the border between Canada and the U.S.
The lecture was established in 2006 to highlight the mission of the Canada-U.S. Law Institute, a joint creation of Western Law and the Case Western Reserve University School of Law in Cleveland, Ohio.
