They have the ability to obtain a certificate. The duty counsel model is not appropriate for refugee cases. It doesn't work, so you have to use the certificate model or staff lawyers, and we have both in Ontario. We have a few staff lawyers, but mostly it's done through the certificate program. I believe that is pursuant to a Supreme Court of Canada case that was decided twenty years ago. I think the Singh ruling said that refugee applicants, once they reached Canada, were in fact residents of whatever province they were in and were entitled to legal services.
