What I hear most about any kind of election of judges is that once you are in the election process, you're beholden to someone. We cannot be beholden to anybody; I don't care what the level of the court is. The provincial attorney general, when he makes the appointments, has to do this with great scrutiny. They now have committees that go through the names, and their selection process now is, I would dare say, vastly improved from what it was years ago.
