Again, thank you. It is an important question.
Certainly COVID has put pressures on the system across Canada, and not just on immigration and refugee legal aid. Given the questions we have had previously, there will be recourse to legal aid in family law settings, and maybe even in aspects of intimate partner violence and whatnot. There may be increased bankruptcies that force people to use legal aid as well. There are also funding questions, particularly in a place like Ontario, where a great deal of the funding comes from the foundation and whose revenues will have been impacted by the market impact on foundation funding.
It's a complex problem, and I'm working with my provincial and territorial counterparts. I'm always doing my best to seek resources for additional support. Is it enough? It is probably never enough, but we do our best under the circumstances to get as many resources as possible.
