Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to both witnesses for coming here. Indeed, when you shared your experiences, it was a difficult time. Thank you for the strength you've shown. Thank you for the service you've provided to the country.
I'm going to start with Madam Gualtieri.
You talked about how there's an urgency to pass this private member's bill. We are all committed to making sure that the appropriate amendment is put in. I'm confident that, collectively, we will work together to put in the appropriate amendment to manage the scope and to manage some of the unintended consequences of some of the recommendations in there. Hopefully, we will send it back to the House, and it will pass.
One thing that you mentioned was that you know there will come a point when this bill will pass. Fundamentally, what needs to happen is that there needs to be a cultural and socio-political change. My colleague, Madam Block started on that. This is where I want to do a little bit more of a deep dive because I believe the cultural and socio-political change could be something that.... My colleague, MP Barrett, asked what we could do immediately. Probably it's an area that we could explore, starting very soon.
Can you help us to, kind of, demystify it or break it down and say what specifically needs to change?
I know you talked about the public side and how the public got mobilized in the U.S. How about within the structure, within the government structure? What could be done?
