How to do good by inflicting suffering on lawyers and legal-adjacent people!
This February, the Habeas Corps is taking part in the Push-Up Challenge, in order to tap into the surprisingly large market for inflicting suffering on lawyers and lawyer-adjacent people to raise funds for a very good cause - the Canadian Association for Mental Health.
We are challenging ourselves to complete as many push-ups as the app will let us (we suspect the CAMH's legal team may have been involved in the decision to limit the number of push-ups participants can log) between February 5-27, 2026 to push for better mental health outcomes in Canada.
You can help us push for better mental health in Canada by joining us or donating to our team.
All proceeds go to the Canadian Mental Health Association to support mental illness recovery and foster positive mental health outcomes in Canada.
