 * Unfortunately I feel this article is not yet at GA standard. Feel free to renominate once the below issues have been addressed. Nikkimaria (talk) 14:24, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Writing and formatting

 * "About the organization" is not an appropriate section heading - the article as a whole is about the organization
 * Use "1950s", etc instead of "50s" in section headings
 * A number of sections are overly listy, and should be written in prose
 * Lead does not adequately summarize the article, and is rather unencyclopedic in tone (particularly the second sentence)
 * Per WP:LAYOUT, External links should come after references, and should not duplicate cited sources. Also, Footnotes subheading is unnecessary, as it is the only subheading under References
 * See also should not include links that are or should be linked in article text

Accuracy and verifiability

 * Footnotes should appear after punctuation
 * Some sections are completely unreferenced
 * Use a consistent reference format
 * Need more third-party sources - over-reliance on the organization's website
 * "modeled on similar doctrines in England and Scotland" - the ref describes the doctrines of England, but does not support the assertion that Ontario's doctrines are based on those
 * Avoid original research and synthesis

Broad

 * "Aboriginal legal rights" section does not seem to be connected to the article topic
 * "About the organization" should be recast and expanded

Neutrality

 * Please see WP:W2W, and avoid inserting editorial bias
 * Maintain an encyclopedic tone at all times
 * Avoid promotional language

Stability
No issues noted
