Yesterday the Attorney General gave a strong speech outlining the delays that have, over time, crept into the criminal system. For Ontario Court of Justice matters (generally less serious criminal matters) the time to resolution and number of attendances has doubled in the last 15 years. Delay and excessive process have become the enemy of substantive justice. It is good to see the Attorney General giving focus to the problem. As he said, the time to change is now.
