Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I believe those people who are on the waiting list... there are hundreds of files that are waiting to get a lawyer... I think they would expect a better answer from the Minister of Justice than to say he's just been talking to his federal counterparts. For example, we put in $10 million for student financial assistance, even though the Government of Canada only puts in $1 million. So why can't the Minister do his part and put some extra money in there? Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
