Thank you.

I'm going to move on to legal aid, something Mr. MacGregor was talking about, because that's another area of jurisdiction that gets a bit muddied in people's perceptions about areas of jurisdiction.

I practised law in Ontario for 20 years before I went into politics. Legal aid always fell under the jurisdiction of the province. Is that accurate, with the exception of immigration? I'll get to that in a second.
