The court challenges program board is set out in its bylaws. There are two representatives from the equality rights groups, two representatives from the language rights groups, one member from the equality rights panel, one representative from the language rights panel, as well as one person appointed by the Canadian Bar Association and the Canadian Council of Law Deans. The two representatives from each of the equality and language rights members are elected, if you will, by the members rather than appointed.
