CELEBRATING THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF FUTURE LEGAL WARRIORS: KRYSTAL ANDERSON & TAMARA PELLETIER

The Indigenous Bar Association (IBA) is thrilled to congratulate Krystal Anderson, a 1L student at the University of Alberta, Faculty of Law, and Tamara Pelletier, a 1L student at the Peter A. Allard School of Law at UBC, on being awarded the prestigious IBA Scholarship Foundation Scholarships. These scholarships recognize their academic excellence, dedication to community, and commitment to advancing Indigenous legal traditions and justice.

Typically, we announce these awards at our Annual IBA Conference. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, we were unable to do so this year. We deeply regret not being able to celebrate these outstanding recipients in person during the 36th Annual IBA Conference. Nevertheless, we are overjoyed to share this news with our community now.

Krystal and Tamara represent the strength, resilience, and brilliance of the next generation of Indigenous legal warriors. Their journeys in law school are a testament to their determination and vision, and we have no doubt they will continue to make meaningful contributions to Indigenous communities and the broader legal landscape.

To Krystal and Tamara, we extend our heartfelt congratulations and best wishes for your studies and careers ahead. You embody the values and aspirations of the IBA, and we are excited to see the incredible work you will achieve in the years to come.

Hiy hiy,

The Indigenous Bar Association
