Abstract
Recent political developments have caused some to question whether our own survival is at stake. Such doomsday predictions are probably overstated, but the Rule of Law’s fate is much less certain. Protecting it starts by understanding what the Rule of Law means in 2017. This article offers a compelling and colourful metaphor for how lawyers should understand their moral and professional obligations to advocate for the rule of law in their communities.
