I certainly agree with Ms. Buckley's comment that we should not compartmentalize rights. That is very important in the current context. We cannot throw a bone to minority groups just to have them fight each other for it; we cannot say that one group will get special treatment at the expense of another.
The Court Challenges Program is an essential tool for Canadian democracy. Indeed, democracy entails more than simply expressing the view of the majority: it must also allow minorities to uphold their rights, particularly in the courts. In the case of the Court Challenges Program, I am one of those who believes that the program is a complete package and that rights should not be compartmentalized. I agree with the CBA on this matter.
