Then what's the purpose of having victim services? That's why we have victim services. We're not asking for money. That's not what we're asking for. We're asking for help.
I get referrals from police departments, not just in Ontario but in other parts of the country, to talk with survivors of homicide victims, because there's no specialized treatment. People have the support of the court and support while the investigation is going on, but what happens after? We need to have ongoing support.
Our organization is called Canadian Parents of Murdered Children and Survivors of Homicide Victims because we are not defined by the crime perpetrated on us. We're survivors. All we're saying is that we're here, and we're asking to have the surcharge increased—which is not a whole lot—and put into victim services so they have the money to hire the people, the specialists. As I say, I pay $175. It's not a psychologist that I need. I need a specialist in post-traumatic stress. How else is it going to be available to everyone? What an administrative nightmare to try to figure out, that one person deserves this, and another person deserves that.
No. It's services that we need. We're not looking for you to cut us a cheque.
I hope that answers your question.
