Winnipeg Lawyer Hafeez A. Khan Appointed Judge of Manitoba's Court of King's Bench
The Honourable Sean Fraser, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, announced in Ottawa on October 1 the appointment of Hafeez A. Khan, a sole practitioner in Winnipeg, as a Judge of the Court of King's Bench of Manitoba (Family Division) in Winnipeg. Justice Khan replaces Justice R. B. Doyle, who retired effective August 13, 2026. The appointment was made under the judicial application process established in 2016.
Justice Khan was born and raised in Winnipeg. He received a Bachelor of Science in Ecology (First Class Honours) from the University of Manitoba and went on to earn degrees in both common law and civil law at McGill University. After graduation, he completed an internship in Kenya through the Canadian Lawyers for International Human Rights. He was called to the Manitoba Bar in 2003 and to the New York Bar in 2004.
Bilingual, Justice Khan has practiced in both official languages with a primary focus on child protection. He was involved in the implementation and application of Manitoba's first, and currently only, Indigenous child and family services law, and has appeared before all levels of court in Manitoba, as well as the Federal Court and the Supreme Court of Canada. He is a former chair of the Mental Health Review Board and was counsel in the Phoenix Sinclair Inquiry.
The Department of Justice said Justice Khan has been a regular guest speaker in the French and English family law courses at the University of Manitoba Faculty of Law and has lectured for the Law Society and the Canadian Bar Association. Fraser said he is confident Justice Khan will serve the people of Manitoba well.
Federal judicial appointments are made by the Governor General, acting on the advice of the federal Cabinet and recommendations from the Minister of Justice. The department said the application process emphasizes transparency, merit and the diversity of the Canadian population.
