There's some good points here but a lot of self-serving nonsense.  The government is not the only problem here. There are quite a few guilty parties:

1) Lawyers.  

The reason the court system costs so much is because lawyers cost so much.The supply of lawyers is controlled by the Law Society's and they keep supply low in order to keep lawyer's salaries high.  They refuse to modernize the law profession through paralegals and other quasi-lawyers even though most legal functions don't be performed by a lawyer.  Of course the government looks the other way because most MPs are lawyers.  

2) Judges.

Another self-regulated industry with no accountability and no transparency.  Like the Law Society's, they keep they supply of judges low so that salaries remain high.


3) The court system.

Full of insiders who don't want to change a thing because they have a nice little gravy train going for themselves.
