A Vancouver-based lawyer who complained about having to drive to court in Abbotsford wasn't the first to grumble. Judge K. D. Skilnick said he and other judges in the community are hearing more and more complaints from "many junior lawyers" coming from Vancouver. Persons visiting Abbotsford from Vancouver do not require a passport or any type of inoculation or shots before coming here." Abbotsford can seem a long way off when you're coming from Vancouver, say some members of the Vancouver legal profession, according to an Abbotsford judge. Abbotsford, to the east of Vancouver, is more than twice the size of the coastal city in square kilometres.
