    FWIW judges in my Canadian province have mandatory retirement at age 75.

        Things work different up here, ie: judges are never elected - always appointed; our judiciary rules based on our Constitution, Charter of Rights and Freedoms and common law (not original intent or civil law [except Quebec]); and treaty rights for First Nations peoples (and sometimes Metis and Inuit).
