Surrey Provincial Court Judge Gregory T.W. Bowden has been appointed to the B.C. Supreme Court.
The announcement was made Friday in Ottawa by federal justice minister Rob Nicholson.
Bowden will replace Justice Kirsti Gill, who resigned in June.

He was appointed Queen’s Counsel in 1996 and was appointed a judge of the Provincial Court of British Columbia in May 2004.
Bowden was on the executive of the Canadian Tax Foundation from 1990 to 1993, chairman and governor of the Law Foundation of British Columbia from 1990 to 1995 and chairman of the Legal Services Society of British Columbia from 2003 to 2004.
