The legal profession does not only comprise lawyers working for large firms in big cities. There are also public servants. We've been talking about deputy ministers, but there are also a large number of professionals. There are several thousand in Canada. In every department of justice and even in other departments, they practice law and fulfill very important responsibilities, including advising their minister. In their case, the salary scale may vary, but their compensation does not exceed $150,000.
And there are also the law professors. Of course, this is an area where people negotiate collective agreements. However, it is rare for a collective agreement to provide for compensation of more than $100,000 or $120,000. In addition, because there is no requirement for exclusivity, professors can hold copyright or engage in consulting. But here we're talking about amounts that may vary between $25,000 and $50,000, approximately. That is probably the most that a professor could receive by way of compensation, unless he or she happens to be a big star. I think Mr. Cotler could confirm that.
