That's a good question. We haven't done that economic analysis. In terms of the advocacy, there's certainly a lot of advocacy happening in this province around access to justice, and there is some variance in answering that question. The one organization that has put forward a concrete number is the B.C. branch of the Canadian Bar Association. I don't think it was this latest provincial election—I believe it was the one before—but it's within the last five years that they put together a plan where they did actually quantify it. It was not quite returning to the levels of 2002, which I believe is when the cuts were made, but it was fairly close, adjusting for inflation, of course.
