Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses. It's a shame that we have so little time and so many people here.
Ms. Malischewski, I have met with the Association for the Prevention of Torture twice. One of the challenges with Canada signing this is that our whole system.... We have provinces and the federal government, and many of the places where people are detained are actually provincial in nature, like police stations. It doesn't mean we can't do it. There's Australia, Brazil and Austria, but the vast majority of countries that have ratified this don't have our system.
I know that you and Dr. Zinger wrote a letter. Thank you for that.
I have a couple of questions. What are your thoughts on Canada's signing the OPCAT and then figuring everything out and ratifying it later? We haven't even signed on to it yet. I think signing it would send a strong message. I'm speaking personally—not as the government right now.
Do you have any thoughts on how we would deal with this division of powers between the feds and the provinces, and quite frankly, how would we make sure that indigenous organizations are also involved?
