S4E2 - Why Legal Data Matters

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.
