Status of Women Committee on Oct. 26th, 2016

[Sean Fraser, Liberal, Central Nova, NS]

Thank you.

[The Chair, Conservative, Marilyn Gladu]

Ms. Harder.

[Rachael Thomas, Conservative, Lethbridge, AB]

Do you have a specific time frame in which you're looking to have these motions submitted?

[The Chair, Conservative, Marilyn Gladu]

Yes. I was thinking if we got them by Monday of next week, then we would be able to make time on Wednesday, because of the notice of motions.

Will that work?

So if I can have them by Monday of next week, that would be great.

[Rachael Thomas, Conservative, Lethbridge, AB]

Okay, thank you.

[The Chair, Conservative, Marilyn Gladu]

Mr. Genuis.

[Garnett Genuis, Conservative, Sherwood Park—Fort Saskatchewan, AB]

Just for purposes of our discussion, I want to make sure I'm recalling what we had talked about correctly. As far as I heard, there were four different potential topic areas. One, broadly speaking, women's participation in the economy; two, a study about refugees; three, pornography in the media and the relationship to violence; and four, the Divorce Act. Those were the four possibilities that were raised. Am I missing anything?

[The Chair, Conservative, Marilyn Gladu]

Madam Moore.

[Christine Moore, NDP, Abitibi—Témiscamingue, QC]

The access to shelter will be really our priority if we can.

[The Chair, Conservative, Marilyn Gladu]

Right, and I would add that those are the four that we heard about today. That's not to say there won't be others that would come forward once you've done your review.

Are we good? Wonderful.

At the next meeting we will have the New Leaf Program from Pictou county, Babely Shades, Collectivité ingénieuse de la Péninsule acadienne, and Manon Bergeron and Sandrine Ricci from the Université du Québec à Montréal.

Thank you for that and I look forward to voting.

The meeting is adjourned.
