Thank you.
As we heard earlier, throughout January the minister conducted round tables on this issue all over Canada. Some of the main themes that came out of the round tables actually centred around education, both for men and for women, and the fact that education must be accessible to newcomers before and after they arrive in Canada. Immigrant men need to better understand the consequences of their actions, and immigrant women need to better understand the courses of action they can take when they find themselves in those difficult situations.
How can CIC take action on this? What are some of the programs that could be introduced?
