Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much for being here today and sharing your very important testimony with us on this critical legislation that we're studying. The expertise you bring is I think very significant. In my tenure with this committee, I think what I've heard today is one of the most insightful, varied, and expert testimonies I've heard on any of the legislation we've been recently studying, so I really want to thank you for that.
I'd like to start with Ms. Campbell.
First of all, I would like to thank you for sharing your brave story with us today. I know that it must be very difficult for you to be here. I think I can say on behalf of everyone here that we have greatest sympathy for what you've gone through in your life and we hope that no other children have to suffer the way you did.
I want to thank you for the organization you've created to assist other child sex abuse victims. I know that you and your colleagues there are doing great work to protect children in Canada and elsewhere around the world. I just can't thank you enough for that.
