When Mr. Justice Bastarache made his recommendation, the bar didn't do any favours for the people it represented. If we're talking about ability, having the ability to interpret the law is one thing, but if law and argument don't meet, it's no longer a matter of ability. We've just lost that ability, not just as regards what's written on paper and interpretation. We have to understand that. We don't want to get it from a third party. That's not fair. And yet that's precisely what's happening now.
Personally, when I make a speech in the House of Commons, when I go back to my riding, people tell me that it's too bad I can't take 10 minutes to make a speech in one language and 10 minutes to make a speech in the other language, because they miss half of what I said. I'm not saying that to be nasty to the translators: it's that I speak too quickly. They can't follow me. The poor judge... I wouldn't want to be a lawyer and present an argument, because I wouldn't do a good job. In Acadian, we say: “I wouldn't do a good job, I guarantee you that.” That's the problem.
