I did indeed table an affidavit in support of my application to intervene in the case. Our intervention will address some very specific points: the scope of the obligation imposed on institutions pursuant to subsection 41(2); what is meant by "positive measures"; what is the nature and extent of the duty to consult, a point that you raised; what review process the courts must follow to determine whether a federal institution is part VII-compliant; to what extent Canadian Heritage has met its responsibilities, a point that was also studied in as in-depth a manner as possible in our inquiry; and what is meant by the right to redress which is provided in part X of the act.
This will indeed be the first time that the courts will study and test the scope of the amendment. We want the scope of the act to be clearly established.
