Project Bookmark Canada marks the places where the real and imagined landscapes meet by placing text from imagined stories and poems in the exact, physical locations where literary scenes take place. The charity envisions a network of hundreds of Bookmarks around the country so that residents and visitors can read their way right across Canada.

Iler Campbell LLP has been with Project Bookmark Canada from the beginning. Its founder, author Miranda Hill, engaged us in 2006 to help incorporate the organization and achieve charitable status. And in 2009, we proudly attended the unveiling of the first Bookmark at the Bloor Street Viaduct: a passage from Michael Ondaatje’s In the Skin of a Lion.

We continue to provide Project Bookmark Canada with ongoing legal service primarily in the areas of corporate and contractual law. Recently, Project Bookmark Canada created installations in Vancouver, BC and Gros Morne National Park in NL and has just completed an extensive fundraising initiative spearheaded by literary luminaries like Margaret Atwood, Terry Fallis and Shelagh Rogers.
