A few weeks ago we did a lobbyist simulation where people were assigned to act as lobbyists in order to effect change while the government is creating a budget.
Me and Laura chose to act as the Canadian Bar Association. The Canadian Bar Association is a group that represents over 37 000 people who work as lawyers, etc. They work towards procuring funds to ensure justice is fair and achievable for all who have to go through the court systems.
The thing that I spoke about was getting more funding so that legal aide is more accessible everywhere in Canada for everything. Laura spoke about a plan to get divorces and child custody battles to happen more rapidly and without jamming up the supreme courts.
