Eva is the lawyer who cross examined Justin Trudeau. Eva Chipiuk, a barrister and solicitor, has a career marked by defending individual rights against formidable opponents, akin to the David and Goliath narrative. Specializing in property rights amid major energy projects and civil liberties in legal disputes against the government, she notably cross-examined the Canadian Prime Minister live, capturing global attention. With a B.Sc., Law Degree, and Master's in Alternative Dispute Resolution, her approach blends creativity with technical skill. Her career took a turn after a rare pancreatic cancer diagnosis in 2010, leading to a sabbatical focused on wellness and self-discovery. This journey inspired her to start two health businesses and the Empowered Canadians organization to educate and engage citizens in democracy. Her diverse experiences underscore her dedication to justice, education, and advocating for the vulnerable. Fluent in English, Polish, Spanish, and French, she remains a champion for rights and democratic participation.
