Great Canadian legal drama television series. Quality programming that also shines a light on issues affecting Canada's Indigenous population. Also, the crew filmed some scenes at the Great Library in the Law Courts building in downtown Winnipeg. I study there sometimes, so I was delighted to see the library on TV! Very cool. am a fan of Kristin Kreuk, too!

Season 3 is abysmal. Child protection doesn't work that way. This show is fictional at best, irresponsible at worst. Typical CBC garbage.

Loved the show. Loved the actors. Only wished for a little humor, if just sarcasm, now and then.
