Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Ms. Mourani, for being here with us.
Bill C-452 condemns human trafficking, which is an odious crime, and updates the Criminal Code in this regard. It can be said that, overall, it is a step in the right direction. Notwithstanding the issues raised earlier by Françoise, I would like to know if you are in favour of establishing a permanent policy against human trafficking. Indeed, without such a policy, we risk losing track of the victims. They could be forgotten.
On another note, we spoke a bit about aboriginal people, first nations, the Inuit and Métis who are particularly affected by this problem and who wish to actively participate in fighting human trafficking. The funding reserved for aboriginal women was reduced by the Conservatives. In spite of that, do you want to include aboriginal people from throughout Canada in your bill?
