ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Canadian Legal Information Institute

The Canadian Legal Information Institute (CanLII) is like a big library of any kind of Canadian law you could imagine. It has all sorts of legal information that people like judges, lawyers, and regular citizens use to learn about Canadian laws.

Think of it like a magic book where you can look up and read any law that exists in Canada, including all the different court cases and legal decisions that have been made throughout history. It helps people to understand what the law is, how it applies to them, and how they can use it to solve legal issues or problems they might face.

CanLII is available online, so all you need is internet access to search for legal information. You can look up laws, court cases, and legal procedures, and learn about the rights and responsibilities for all Canadians, including yourself. And it's all written in a way that you can understand, even if you're only five years old! So it's a really useful tool to have for anyone who needs to know about Canadian laws.
