In 2021, Statistics Canada released the Canadian Legal Problems Survey (CLPS) to identify the kinds of serious legal problems people face, how they attempted to resolve them, and how these experiences have impacted their lives. Our guests today, Susan McDonald, Principal Researcher at Department of Justice Canada and Kathy AuCoin from the Canadian Centre for Justice and Community Safety Statistics at Statistics Canada, discuss the importance of collecting justice data and understanding the access to justice needs in Saskatchewan and the rest of Canada.
