(En anglais seulement) As those who had the privilege to know him are aware, judicial integrity, responsibility and fraternity were important values to the Honourable Judge Charles D. Gonthier (1928-2009), and he supported research, education and practical activities to promote sustainable development, in its economic, environmental and social dimensions. The legacy of values he embraced is kept alive through the Gonthier Endowment Fund established in his name, to support a new series of biennial Lectures.
