Get your annual monopoly and unprofessional conduct protection for only $1,653.75!
Anonymous has left a new comment on your post, "A license to print money?"Mr. Pieuk:
In answer to your question regarding practice fees for the Law Society of Manitoba, the following can be found on its website:
Option 1 - Lump Sum Payment Plan
Practising Fee $= 1,375
Education Fund Contribution = $100
Reimbursement Fund Contribution = $100
Locker Renewal Fee = $0.00
Law Corporation Permit Renewal Fee = $0.00
GST = $78.75
Total Due on or before April 1, 2010 = $1,653.75
Option 2 – Instalment Plan
First Instalment = $787.50
Administration Charge $75.00
Locker renewal fee = $0.00
Law Corporation Permit Renewal Fee = $0.00
GST = $43.13
Due on or before: April 1, 2010 = $905.63
Second Instalment = $787.50
GST = $39.38
Due on or before: October 1, 2010 = $826.88
The non-practising fee for the practising year ending March 31, 2011 is in the amount of $105.00
($100.00 + $5.00 GST)
Send cheques
So, for the bargain basement price of $1,653.75 Manitoba lawyers get defence of their monopoly and protection of their unprofessional conduct which can be paid in installments no less!
Must be nice .....

Dear VJH:
As always on behalf of our readers thank you very much for another enlightening e-mail. Loved your closing statement.
CanLaw (http://www.canlaw.com/) lists 1,841 Manitoba lawyers in its index. Using that number and the LSM's annual membership fee, if our arithmetic is correct, yields a cool grand total of $3,044,553.75 annually to protect us. Payments are due on April 1 but we don't know whether that's significant.

Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk
