Distinguished Canadian civil rights lawyer and giant of the legal profession Clayton Ruby has died at the age of 80.

He was even briefly jailed for his work as a civil rights activist in the U.S., Shiller said. "It's a failure of justice. "It was justice that really defined him ... and to ensure that people in authority were accountable," he said. But as a friend he was very caring," he said. Among his other high-profile cases, Ruby also represented Michelle Douglas, a soldier dismissed from the military in 1989 for her sexual orientation. "Clay was a dedicated advocate for human rights, a champion of the underdog and a loving friend. To date, no guards have been charged in the case. So there's a more skeptical approach to prosecution claims and I think that's a healthy thing. "Giant in the legal profession, pillar of the progressive community, and a fine and decent man, a mensch," he wrote. Shiller first began working with Ruby 28 years ago and still considers him a mentor. "He was an empathetic, sweet person. Our thoughts are with his family and our entire firm mourns the loss of our leader and mentor," the firm said in a tweet.
