The executive director of the Big Brothers, Big Sisters chapter in Gatineau, Que., has falsely portrayed herself as a lawyer and practised law without a licence, according to an investigation by Radio-Canada, and without the knowledge of the charity's board members. Radio-Canada consulted close to 10 documents from the Law Society of Ontario and the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in reporting this story. But Dubé told Radio-Canada she knew nothing about the case and insisted she never represented anyone as a lawyer. The complaint filed against Dubé came on April 19, 2012 to the law society from Ottawa lawyer Mélanie Lord. Charity unawareDubé was hired at Big Brothers, Big Sisters in early 2015, shortly before the order she consented to from the Ontario court.
