Employment & Labour LawEmployment & Labour LawAbout Mark A. Stone
Mark Stone is a Toronto partner at Filion Wakely Thorup Angeletti who works for employers, private and public sector alike, on whatever labour or employment question comes up. Plenty of that is forward-looking, strategic counsel given before trouble starts. It also takes Stone to the bargaining table, into contested hearings and through labour disputes such as strikes and picketing.
Called to the Ontario bar in 1991, Mark Stone joined the partnership in 1997 and brings a mix of law and business training: a law degree from Dalhousie, plus arts and business administration degrees from St. Francis Xavier.
Stone has been recognized in The Best Lawyers in Canada since 2022, for labour and employment law in Toronto. Stone also shares what the job teaches: in November 2025, Stone was one of the presenters on a webinar run by AEC, a national team of local lawyers, that walked construction employers with operations in several provinces through how certification, decertification and raid rules vary from one jurisdiction to the next.
