Ladies and gentlemen, we will resume our meeting of the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights. We are studying access to justice, focusing on legal aid.
We are delighted to be joined today by two witnesses. I am pleased to welcome Ryan Fritsch, who is a lawyer and a lecturer at the University of Windsor.
Welcome, Mr. Fritsch.
As a repeat witness, we have Josh Paterson, executive director of the British Columbia Civil Liberties Association.
Welcome back, Mr. Paterson.
We're going to start with Mr. Fritsch.
