Placing a focus on mental health and community: An interview with Kelly McDermott, President of the OBA and Senior Solicitor at the Regional Municipality of Durham

We caught up with Kelly McDermott (Labour and Employment Associate, Toronto: 2008 – 2010), Senior Solicitor, Regional Municipality of Durham, and President of the Ontario Bar Association (OBA), to discuss her career and her advocacy for education, mental health, access-to-justice and equity, diversity and inclusion within law. Kelly has participated in many wonderful initiatives and we are excited to share the wonderful work she has done with you.

Can you tell us about your career path?

I was at McCarthy’s from 2008 to 2010 as an associate in the labour and employment practice group in Toronto. Thereafter, I worked at Stringer LLP prior to joining the Region of Durham as a labour solicitor in 2011. In 2016, I was promoted to Senior Solicitor. Currently, I manage the 20+ staff in the Region’s Legal Services Division.

In my role as Senior Solicitor at the Region, I am the chief spokesperson in all rounds of collective bargaining for nine different bargaining units. I have been separately retained by the Corporation of the Town of Whitby, Durham Region Police Services, the Township of Brock and Durham Region Non-Profit Housing Corporation to lead and/or provide strategic advice in their collective bargaining negotiations.

I maintain a continuous stream of litigation files before: boards of arbitrations, various administrative tribunals (e.g., Ontario Labour Relations Board, Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario, and the Workplace Safety and Insurance Appeals Tribunal), Police Services Act prosecutions and various courts (e.g., Ontario Superior Court of Justice and Provincial Court of Justice). Further, I regularly appeared before Regional Council on a number of matters and am the designated project lead on large Regional initiatives and infrastructure projects, including a recent bid to build a $200-million-dollar anaerobic digester in Durham.

In your role as OBA President, what you have been focusing on during your term?

As OBA President, I’m honoured to be able to lend my unique experience and expertise to the OBA’s continuing, leading-edge efforts to advance innovation, education, access-to-justice and equity, diversity and inclusion in the profession. I am especially proud of the recent work the OBA has undertaken to assist the Judiciary and Ministry of the Attorney General in finding meaningful and objective methods to overcome backlog and delays in the judicial system. In particular, this past summer the OBA launched our "Bail the Boat" sessions – a series of focused townhall-style brainstorming sessions that brought our members together from every region of Ontario to generate immediate solutions to the backlog in civil courts, several of which the courts have implemented. These include backlog-reducing initiatives like the elimination of placeholder motions, express court for short motions, attendance requirements for some case conferences, and a pilot of Calendly. The OBA continues to advocate for the implementation of more Bail the Boat recommendations.

We know you are an advocate for mental health awareness and are involved in several related initiatives both through the OBA and within your community. Can you tell us more about your involvement?

Throughout my career, I have made community engagement a priority. In addition to being a lifelong volunteer, Board member and Council member for the Ontario Bar Association, I have been on the Board of Directors and/or executive member of Durham Region Law Association, Grandview Kids, MS Society of Canada and the Emergency Services Steering Committee. In these roles, I have had the opportunity to engage in lobbying and make representations at various levels of government. Recently, I participated in an episode of The Every Lawyer podcast where we discussed EDI, neurodiversity, lawyering when life shows up and the importance of professional support networks.

However, the seeds of my OBA presidential mandate were sown during the height of the pandemic – I was feeling depleted professionally and facing personal challenges. The OBA community was a lifeline: providing me with mental-health and wellness resources and member connection to help me shore up my resilience and navigate tricky terrain. As senior in-house counsel, a single mom with an episodic disability and the primary caregiver to a person on the autism spectrum, I had come to appreciate that no one understands lawyers – the ‘whole’ lawyer – like other lawyers do. As a result, I made it my mission to create more accessible and inclusive networks for lawyers to gain meaningful support from their peers not just in their careers as lawyers but in their lives as lawyers.

Our new Peer Support Network portal connects lawyers of similar lived experiences with relevant resources and with each other. We have translated the power of that organic peer support into a tangible platform. Given my own experience, I am particularly proud of the Peer Support Network for Lawyers Living with Disabilities that we launched in September, alongside a series of Peer Support Meetings where lawyers can candidly and confidentially share experiences and offer each other understanding in a safe, judgement-free space, all while building camaraderie, breaking stigmas, and sharing solutions. I’ve been fortunate to lead some of the first meetings and been inspired by how open and supportive our participants were. I’m happy to say that The Peer Support Network for Lawyers Living with Disabilities, like our Parent and Caregiver and Unite and Support networks, will also provide the OBA with the advice that will allow us to continue to serve lawyers well. I don’t want anyone to feel compelled to hide their struggles because there are often solutions and there is ALWAYS support. I hope the OBA will continue to be the place where lawyers turn to find just what they need to survive, adapt and thrive, whatever they are facing. 

What advice do you have for our Alumni?

Despite the high demands of private practice, continue to stay involved in the greater legal community, legal associations and community-based associations and boards. Those networks will support you, not only in your career as a lawyer, but in your life as a lawyer.

Iain Morton

Iain Morton (Business Law Partner, Toronto: 1989-2007) is Senior Vice President, General Counsel at Accor.  Accor is a world leading hospitality group offering experiences across more than 110 countries in 5,500 properties.  Based in Dubai, United Arab Emirate, Iain is General Counsel, for the Middle East, Africa and Turkey region for the hotel group’s Premium, Midscale and Economy brands.

Iain’s law career started at McCarthy Tétrault where he articled 1987/1988, after which he was hired back as an Associate.  During his time with McCarthy Tétrault, Iain was seconded for two years to Matsuo & Kosugi in Japan as a Foreign Legal Associate.  After 18 years at McCarthy Tétrault, Iain was offered an exciting role as Senior Vice President, General Counsel, Americas at Fairmont Raffles Hotels International where he would spend the next 9+ years of his career. 

In 2016, and following the acquisition of Fairmont and Raffles by Accor, Iain accepted the GC role with Accor which would eventually land him in Dubai.

Iain and his wife had always been open to opportunities to live and work abroad, having met on Iain’s secondment in Tokyo.   But it was still a tough decision to leave family, friends and colleagues in Toronto.  Such opportunities in the practice of law are rare, and so not easily turned down.  Iain’s legal experience in North America (trained well at McCarthys) was what Accor was looking to relocate to the Middle East.   

Of interest, Iain worked on the 2022 FIFA World Cup Qatar, on Accor’s management of the temporary accommodation facilities for fans attending from all over the world.  And he made it to two of the games, cheering proudly at the Canada matches versus Belgium and Morocco. 

Regional Spotlights: Québec

Nathaly Marcoux (Litigation Associate, Québec: 2000 – 2007)

After being called to the Bar in 1995, Nathaly Marcoux practiced commercial litigation at our firm from 2000 to 2007. She joined the Autorité des marchés publics (AMP) as Vice President, Public Procurement Oversight, in 2019.

What have you been doing since you left the firm?

Since leaving the firm, I have been working for government agencies whose mission is to protect the public and prevent fraudulent practices against the government. I joined the Autorité des marches financiers (AMF) when I left the firm in December 2007. This is where I began my career in management, as the Head of Legal Services in Québec City and then in Montréal. A few years later, I had the opportunity to join the senior management team of the Investigations Directorate as Investigation Director, Insider Trading & Market Manipulation.

In 2014, I took on the position of Vice President, Investigations at the Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ). This was at the time of the hearings of the Commission of Inquiry on the Awarding and Management of Public Contracts in the Construction Industry. It was against this background that major changes were made to the Building Act, which is enforced by the RBQ. My mandate was to transform the investigative function of the RBQ in order to respond to the enhanced mandate assigned to the agency, designed to prevent unlicensed work and improve the monitoring of the integrity of construction contractors in Québec.

In 2019, I joined the Autorité des marchés publics (AMP) as Vice President, Public Procurement Oversight.

In addition to these duties, I am actively involved in the training program for civilian investigators in public administration at Université Laval, which in fact was launched by one of our former colleagues, Yan Paquette, together with fellow professors. In addition, I teach Evidence and Methodology as well as Drafting Investigative Reports. I have had the opportunity to contribute to the revamp of this program and the professional development of hundreds of government investigators since 2017, when I started teaching at Université Laval.

The Autorité des marchés publics was recently established in Québec – please tell us about its mandate and your duties with this organization.

The AMP is a neutral, independent government body whose main role is overseeing public procurement and the application of legislation and regulations governing public contracts in Québec. In performing its mission, the AMP pays particular attention to compliance, from the award of public contracts to their completion. It is also responsible for integrity audits of companies who contract with the government.

At the AMP, I’m responsible for the teams who perform integrity audits of companies, those responsible for information and the oversight of public procurement as well as the legal affairs and litigation departments, which make up a combined team of approximately 135 employees.

What are the major challenges you face in your new role?

Challenges represent exceptional opportunities! When I joined the AMP, we were a very small team of 50 employees. Starting from a blank page, we created this new government organization. In order to hire personnel and organize the work process, while at the same time operationalizing the responsibilities already assigned to the AMP since January 2019 – a few months before I arrived, our machine needed to quickly fire on all cylinders, as it had to rapidly pick up speed, and it did!

This was a rare opportunity to contribute to the creation of a new government body and decide, from the outset, on its structure, its governance, its culture, and personality, in a sense. Furthermore, as a government body responsible for the oversight of government activities, we had to define our approach and the meaning we wished to give to our actions.

In itself, the mission of protecting transparency, equity, fair competition, the sound management of public funds and the integrity of their actors is extremely stimulating. When you add to this the unique experience of creating a new organization. It is a privilege.

What are your best memories of your time at McCarthy Tétrault?

The rigour and professionalism, the intensity and the friendships! I was lucky to work alongside many great lawyers at McCarthy Tétrault! I collaborated with and learned from exceptional lawyers and colleagues. I learned about work ethics, thoughtful legal reasoning, strategy and a client-service orientation. I discovered that no shortcuts can be permitted with respect to these principles, even in the midst of a whirlwind.

All these values are still part of who I am today and I preach them to my teams: a culture of expertise, performance and service. We hear many things about the civil service. From my viewpoint on the inside, this culture is possible and, in fact, it is flourishing.

What I value the most are the great friendships born at McCarthy Tétrault that continue to this day. I made some exceptional friends who are true, loyal and present, no matter what happens.

McCarthy Tétrault had a significant impact on my career. What I learned during my years at the firm is an integral part of who I am today.

Pascal Paradis (Business Law Partner, Québec: 1999 – 2004)

Pascal practiced as a lawyer and a partner at our firm from 1999 to 2004, before leaving to become the Executive Director of Lawyers Without Borders. Pascal was elected to the National Assembly of Québec as the member for Jean‑Talon in a recent by-election.

You recently participated in a high-profile election that saw all the candidates reaching out daily to voters on the ground – what do you take away from this experience?

I greatly enjoyed going door-to-door meeting citizens. Doing this every day gave me another dimension to understanding the issues in my riding, most notably when it comes to measuring social inequalities or the impacts of inflation and the housing crisis. When they answer their door, people open a window into their lives, offering a clearer view of the broad diversity of my riding. This allowed me to build upon relationships forged over the years with the people of this riding, where I grew up and now live. Lastly, it has made me more in tune with the daily reality of citizens, which will help me in my work as a member of the National Assembly.

You had informed the Board of Directors of Lawyers Without Borders of your decision to resign from your position after almost 20 years at the head of this organization –tell us about the recent history of Lawyers Without Borders and the role it can play in the current geopolitical context?

Lawyers Without Borders has demonstrated its relevance in advancing key global issues and its ability to mobilize the legal community in promoting the Rule of Law and the respect of fundamental human rights. I particularly appreciated the role of increasing awareness of respecting obligations under international law. In the spirit of sound governance, after 20 years as Executive director, it was time to pass the torch. My departure was planned but it was precipitated when I was offered to run in the elections. The organization has reached a sound maturity; it has 150 employees and an annual budget of $20 to $21 M, a new head office in Québec City and operations in six countries. I am very pleased with the work accomplished during my time at Lawyers Without Borders and remain confident that the team in place will enable the organization to continue to play a vital role for the respect of international law.

You are the Justice critic for the Parti québécois at the National Assembly – what do you consider to be the main challenges in the administration of justice?

I see parallels with my previous duties at Lawyers Without Borders and those of Justice critic for the Parti québécois. The administration of justice in Quebec has been criticized in recent years. The rule of Law requires strong institutions. It is a Ministry that requires attention and investments, particularly in technology but also in human resources, so that the sound administration of justice can be carried out by competent people who are specially trained. I see a link between my role as Justice Critic and my other mandates – I am the critic of my party for nine ministries – since the fight against inequalities is also at the heart of court interventions in matters of social justice, equality and the respect of diversity.
