I will give you the point of view of the Centre francophone de Toronto. Our legal clinic has been in operation for about three years. That's fairly recent. To my knowledge, in our short life we have not had to use the Court Challenges Program.
However, it is very easy to imagine situations in which we might need the program, given the fact that we have a legal aid clinic. These are simply theoretical examples, not facts. For instance, a new entrant to Canada, say a francophone from Africa or from any other place in the world where French is spoken, might feel he has been discriminated against within the process to determine whether or not he is a refugee. This person could turn to us and ask us to launch a legal challenge under section 15 of the Constitution or under any other provision of the Charter. In that type of situation, we would probably need to turn to the Court Challenges Program, if it still existed.
It probably won't, but if it did, we could easily turn to it in that type of situation.
