Absolutely. I believe the mentorship program would be an excellent idea. I know that these abuses are taking place but a lot of women are actually coming to this country and making an extremely good life for themselves, really succeeding in life.
One thing I want to say about the abuse of our immigrant women coming into the country is that some of the challenges and issues are very similar to those of any other woman in Canada who is being abused by somebody, by their partner. The gap is that their situation is compounded by other things such as the cultural side, lack of education maybe, language skills, etc. So if there are mentors who can actually assist them and provide them with the right information and show them a way I believe that would be very helpful.
