When pigs fly it's a beautiful sight but watch out for the dumps

Holy Geez...the government of Ontario is going to increase Legal Aid funding by $13 million and citing the new Access to Justice Act, 2005 which hasn't been passed yet will help "address the issue of unrepresented litigants". See this press release from yesterday

This is good news. But it's just a shine job for now - until it's actually working and helping people I won't give the Liberals credit for it.

If the Liberals increased legal aid funding by 10% or $ 25 million - it isn't showing in increased access to legal services - because legal aid offices are still wringing their hands at being able to deny applicant's certificates especially - those who are unfortunate enough to be caged within Ontario mental health abuse system.

If the system was working I wouldn't have had to commence a human rights complaint against the Ministry of the Attorney General, the Law Society of Upper Canada, Legal Aid Ontario, Law Foundation of Ontario and LibraryCo - all under s.s 1;10 (3) and 11 (1) & (2) of the Ontario Human Rights Code (Code linked to the left)
