Thank you, Mr. Chair.
By the way, thank you for coming and attending. I appreciate your being here.
I just want to correct one thing to start off with. Mr. Angus somehow indicated that one of the chief objections to this program was that somehow there was a disjunct between access to asserting equality rights and the equality rights themselves. I don't believe that's the primary objection. Access is really like a portal, like a doorway, and the major concern has been that the door has been open for some and it has been closed for others. As I understand it, that's the main argument that opponents of this program have put forward. In addition, as a government, we're looking at focusing on delivering the resources in a more effective way and making sure the money gets to the people who need it.
I'd like to become a little more familiar with your organization. I believe you represent the National Association of Women and the Law. Is that correct?
I think earlier on you mentioned a number of organizations you were also affiliated with.
