First of all, access to the funding program is not clearly stated out there. In the past, Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, which is called Indigenous Affairs Canada now, used to have something similar to what the court challenges program had. We used to utilize that when we were dealing with our land claim challenges. But in our case, indigenous peoples who are living in isolated communities away from big cities must have a better way of accessing or understanding how this program operates. I think a report was put out by an organization called the Canadian Forum on Civil Justice, which talked about some sort of platform that could easily be accessible online so that people would understand their rights and where they could go and how they could access support to challenge the justice system and protect their rights.
