We have had discussion of this question because we're aware of these discussions. As far as the Canadian Bar Association is concerned, in some ways these will be administrative details that need to be worked out because of the granular nature of some of the considerations that need to be taken into account. Most critical to us is that there be separate envelopes of funding: equality rights funding, language rights funding, and if possible, funding for the types of cases that you've just described.
In terms of the structure, I think we would leave it to the government to best determine what would make the most sense from an administrative perspective, taking into account these positions from the communities that would be served.
A key change with respect to the aboriginal cases, though, is first of all that it be administered independently from government, because it was part of the Indian and Northern Affairs department. What we have heard from our aboriginal law members, those who practise in that area, is that the independence, which is so important for the other aspects of the program, would be critical, and that it must have available to it some of the other supports and expertise that was available to the other funding pieces.
