I whole-heartedly second those congratulations. I'm sure Russ's contributions will continue, even if it means that some will have to rethink their use of "academic".

Russ Brown's abundant learning, clean
prose and good sense is much needed on the Canadian bench. Here's
to stare decisis upside down.
Warm congrats, Russ.

Dear Colleagues:
Congratulations go out to ODGer Russ Brown who has recently
been appointed a Justice of the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench.
I am told that he is leaving the University of
Alberta immedidately to take up his post. His insighful academic
work on tort law generally, and causation specifically, will be
very much missed.
Sincerely,
