Juris Doctor (abbreviated) J.D. or D.Jur, graduate degree and professional doctorate in law offered by universities and law schools in a number of countries.

=============================

Most Canadian law schools still call the law degree a Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.). It is considered to be a graduate degree. The three year law school program covers the same areas of law as do law schools in other jurisdictions.

Update: Some Canadian law schools are now converting, retroactively, the LL.B. degree to a D.Jur.
