Our Mission
Miscarriage of Justice Canada (MJC) is a national non-profit organization dedicated to exposing and remedying wrongful convictions.

Guided by fairness and integrity, we support marginalized and underserved Canadians while promoting accountability and reform within the criminal justice system.
