As I said earlier, my comments were primarily directed to the Court Challenges Program.
With respect to the Law Commission, the report of theirs that I know very well was the one with respect to close personal relationships, looking at the marriage question. I thought that report was very rigorous within a certain ideological framework. Implicit in what I just said is that it missed a great deal because of the ideology it brought to bear on it.
Whether that kind of bias was common to all their work, I'm not qualified to say. I haven't studied it. On that particular study, there were some very important questions that I thought were massively under-evaluated, such as the role of the state in relation to marriage itself, which is a primary question that's never really been properly addressed in Canada. The fact that the Law Commission failed to analyze that I thought was very telling.
So no, on that particular report, I thought it was not well done.
