Well, certainly in British Columbia where we saw very significant cuts to legal aid starting in about 2002—I mean a real, significant gutting of the system—I think the government also made cuts in other areas at the time.
In recent months we've seen a Supreme Court case about cuts to education. We've had cuts to health care in B.C. during periods of austerity.
I don't think family law was alone, but within the context of this conversation, in terms of legal aid, it seems to be in first place.
Poverty law services were cut altogether. There used to be 40,000 people served in terms of poverty law in British Columbia. That went to zero in one year. Everyone who had issues, those who might lose their housing, those who might be having troubles with a bad decision made by the welfare office, those who had been kicked off of benefits unfairly, and those affected by a bad decision made by CPP about disability benefits are now without any legal help.
