About The Canadian Immigration Lawyers Association
CILA was founded in 2020 by a group of immigration lawyers to provide a national organization focused exclusively on immigration law. Founders recognized the need to create an organization capable of effectively representing the immigration bar, fostering an independent community of immigration lawyers, law students and academics, providing professional resources and mentorship, while engaging with stakeholders and promoting the rule of law, access to justice and positive change in the Canadian immigration system.
