As far as I can tell, you don't say "Rt. Hon. Madam Chief Justice" for the same reason you wouldn't say "Rt. Hon. Mr. Chief Justice." - Montrealais
- Perhaps she gets the extra title because she served as Deputy Governor General that time... but I'm not sure about that or whether it would follow her afterwords Melander 07:08, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Children
"She has one son by her first marriage to Roderick McLachlin, who died in 1988." - does this mean her son died, or her husband died ? I think it means her husband but its a little confusing Dowew 16:04, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
I think I fixed the offending sentence properly... It was tough to word. Bravado 01:41, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Deputy Governor General
Would it be appropriate to include here that Mme. McLachlin is also the Deputy Governor General of Canada? FiveParadox 06:52, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
- She is only one of nine.
- True enough. :) Would it be appropriate then, to mention that she is one of nine Deputy Governors General? FiveParadox 20:49, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
- I think it would be more than appropriate to add that she holds these responsibilities, with a note that she shares them with the puisne judges of the Court. PoliSciMaster 02:56, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
- Why not just put it in the articles for Chief Justice of Canada and/or Puisne Justice? The duty is not unique to her and is general enough that it doesn't seem worth noting in every judge bio. --PullUpYourSocks 14:37, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
