The files document honours bestowed on Professor Friedland between 1958 and 2014. They are certificates and awards related to the publication of his The University of Toronto: A History, his LL.B from University of Toronto (1958); his enrolment as a Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Canada (1960); his appointment as a full-time member of the Law Reform Commission of Canada (1971); his appointment as an Officer of the Order of Canada (1991) and his promotion to Companion of the Order of Canada (2003); the Molson Prize, awarded by the Canada Council (1995); the Dawson Medal, awarded by the Royal Society of Canada (2003), and four honorary doctorates from the University of Toronto (2001), York University (2003), Humber College (2009), and the Law Society of Upper Canada (2014).
