A number of associations of French-language jurists have been in existence for a long time, including Ontario's, AJEFO, which has been around for nearly 25 years. Five years ago, the network of associations of French-language jurists was operating on a much smaller scale because it had very few resources. The action plan has given it increased vitality and made it possible to retain people and attract people interested in access to justice, rights advocacy and moving things forward. That was much less the case before the action plan.
Financial resources will be necessary in order to move on to the second level. We've increased awareness through, among other things, a practitioner's guide, which was considered a priority. I don't want to go into all the details. We've gotten to a certain level, and if we stop, we'll fall back. What we want is to move on to the next stage.
We've made progress, jumps of two or three stages, but, if we can make another jump over the next five years, we'll be able to reach a high level of development in the administration of justice, which will benefit all Francophone communities in Canadian society.
