Judge Mary Southin was reputed to have had one of B.C.’s sharpest legal minds

October 26, 2025

Mary Southin had one of the sharpest legal minds in British Columbia, and a remarkable career that spanned more than 50 years as a lawyer and judge.

While still a young lawyer, she made a name for herself representing a wide variety of clients including several trade unions and union members, and took on matrimonial cases at a time when the only acceptable ground for divorce was adultery.
