Access to justice. Part 1, Court Challenges Program / Anthony Housefather, chair.: XC66-1/1-421-4E-PDF

“Over the years, the CCP has provided funding for cases of national significance related to important legislative and policy areas, including access to social and economic benefits for disadvantaged groups, such as Indigenous people, women and the lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender communities; accessibility of public transportation for persons with disabilities; preventing deportation to a country where an individual would be at risk of torture; and access to education in minority official languages. This report summarizes the views expressed during those hearings concerning issues related to sustainability, fairness, efficiencies, accountability and scope of a new program and presents the Committee’s observations and recommendations for the renewal of the CCP. The intention of our recommendations is to improve the CCP. The following sections of this report present an overview of the CCP’s history and the revival of its linguistic rights components with the establishment of LRSP in 2009 and the Committee’s proposals for reform”--Introd., p. 2.
