: Slaw.caOntario Linguistic and Rural Access to Justice Project
By Simon Chester
Amazing what retired Canadian family law professors get up to.
The Law Foundation of Ontario has launched a project on access to legal information and legal services by linguistic minorities and persons living in rural or remote areas. It recognizes the challenges faced in gaining access to legal information and services by persons who do not speak English or French and persons living in rural or remote areas of the province. George Thomson will be leading it.
This project will focus on access to two components (legal information and legal services) by two groups who can face isolation in our communities (linguistic minorities and persons in rural or remote areas).
The project is not intended to address access to self-help tools for self-represented persons, numbers of lawyers and legal workers, processes within courts and tribunals, or the availability of legal aid.
