Member of the Barreau du Québec since 2022, Yanick Gagnon-Carbonneau is part of the Labour and Employment Law group in our Québec City office and practices in all areas of employment law and labour relations.

Yanick completed his law degree as part of a co-op program at the Université de Sherbrooke. After completing his first articling term at the firm, he joined BCF in 2019 as a student and completed his Barreau exams there.

Throughout his university career, Yanick stood out for his leadership, involvement and dedication as an ambassador for the promotion of equal access to legal education, higher education and employment for people from the LGBTQ+ community or with disabilities. In fact, his involvement has twice earned him a scholarship from the Legal Leaders for Diversity Trust Fund. Today, he continues to promote inclusion and respect for diversity through various personal and professional initiatives.

Yanick has also been involved in promoting access to new drugs and clinical trials when the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board (PMPRB) published new guidelines in January 2021.
