He had been hospitalized and diagnosed with acute leukemia about a week ago. This combined with organ failure led to his death.
Paul will be remembered by many defence counsel as a strong but fair and knowledgeable Crown. He was formerly a defence lawyer and for many years was active in the Canadian Bar Association, promoting work on civil liberties, law reform and education, including advocacy in the People's Republic of China. He was also head of the Crown Attorney's Association.
Details on a funeral or other service are not available at this moment.

There is simply no doubt, Paul was one of the finest. Everyone at the Scarborough Crown Attorney's office is in shock, and will dearly miss him
Sounds like a nice fellow. My condolences to all who knew him.
