Certainly the federal government has to help out the provinces in any way that it can to deal with the issues raised by the necessary decision handed down by the Supreme Court - the process has to get faster and that requires people and money to go into the system. On the other hand, the BIG problem is people accused of murder and other serious crimes getting off because the case takes too long to get to court. Since those cases are the ones where a preliminary hearing is still important, those cases won't be helped by Naqvi's suggestion but I guess it will reduce load on the system in the majority of cases. Attitudes in the legal community are going to have to change too, it's unacceptable for cases to sit in limbo for years!
