Thank you for the question.
I may not be able to point to specific examples during that period because I wasn't yet in my role, but what I will say is that I cannot emphasize enough the barriers that exist in accessing the court system in general. What that means is that marginalized communities are simply without recourse.
As members will appreciate and as other witnesses have spoken to, litigation is tremendously expensive. The Court Challenges Program makes a dent in that, but it does not support all of the funding by any stretch. It simply means that rights can be violated by a majority government with no recourse for the minority.
Again, it has devastating consequences.
