If you're asking me whether or not what happened under Attorney General Howard Hampton, where thousands and thousands of charges were thrown out at once, is going to happen again in Ontario in the foreseeable future, the answer is absolutely not. If the question is whether it's possible that of the 500,000 charges that are before the courts every year, there may be one that comes up that is subject to an Askov motion for delay, that may be the case.
If you look over the last three years and if you look at the case flow right now, you'll see that matters are moving through the courts. That isn't to say we don't need that assistance from the federal government on the legal aid front. That is not to say we don't need the assistance to deal with the additional pressures that will come from these bills, as I've said already. But I want people to have confidence in the system. We work very closely with the chief justice and we work very closely with all of our partners in the justice system to ensure that matters are moving through the courts at the appropriate time.
