Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to call the meeting to order. We are waiting for two more guests, but we'll get started.
I want to thank everyone for coming to the Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights, meeting number 72. Pursuant to the order of reference of Wednesday, March 6, 2013, we are dealing with Bill C-452, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (exploitation and trafficking in persons).
We have three witnesses. As you see in the agenda, we have until 4:45 and then we will go to clause by clause from there. We'll see how far we can get with it. Hopefully we can finish this today.
Our first set of witnesses, the group that is here, is from the Quebec Council on the Status of Women. We have Julie Miville-Dechêne and Nathalie Bissonnette here.
Then from the Salvation Army we have Naomi Krueger and Michael Maidment.
We'll start with a presentation of about 10 minutes from the Quebec Council on the Status of Women.
Thank you for coming.
