Prior to attending law school, he graduated cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts from Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where he also earned a Master of Arts degree. Geoff has received numerous awards and acknowledgments throughout his academic career, and his published work is on deposit at the National Library in Ottawa, Ontario.
