Cynical (imaginary) counter-move - drop the literacy and verbal reasoning requirements for admission to law school to ~1st-grade levels. Ditto for the bar exam. Justify that with wording which imitates the offending court rulings. After their own elite social group's standards & status are threatened by dumbing down, the judges will suddenly start pretending that they actually care about their nation's future.

And maybe start work on an amendment to the Canadian Constitution, requiring that judges pass a statistical proficiency test every year.
