Thank you, Mr. Hooper. I'm going to ask you another question.
You hit on something that is so critical, which is that the victim is very reluctant to testify, because what do they get out of it? They can go to court and their very lives are on the line if things don't go well in the court. Often they back down. I know of a case in Montreal where there was a mistrial and the victim has to come back again a year from now; they sort of dragged that out. They have a lot of thinking time during that time, and a lot of memories come back.
Is there something in the bill that you think could reassure the victims? I'm not sure, even when bills are passed, victims get the message that it's okay for them to testify, that they will be protected and the perpetrators will come to justice. That seems to be a huge issue, and it would be for anybody, especially these poor little girls and boys who get caught up in this kind of web of deception.
Can you comment on that at all, Mr. Hooper?
