Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I also want to thank all the witnesses for joining us today.
In the committee's latest meetings and in today's meeting, the witnesses—and I do not mean all of them, but I am just summarizing—talked about Manitoba and a number of other provinces that have adopted this way to proceed over the past few years. I am talking about victims rights, compensation and so on. Manitoba, for instance, created the Victim Rights Support Service, which helps victims gain those kinds of rights.
I would like to put my question to everyone, but I unfortunately have only five minutes. That is so little time when I have so many things to say. So my question is for Mr. Tremblay and Mr. Fortier.
This is definitely a codification of a practice that already exists in a number of provinces. I would like you to tell me what will change once this bill has been passed, codification or not. There has been a lot of boasting about the codification of those rights, and that is fine and well, but who will enforce those rights?
A number of individuals have told us that victims will have difficulty navigating this system. We don't even know who is supposed to enforce the bill. Will complaints be received by federal prosecutors or by the federal ombudsman? I would like to ask you whether the government shouldn't rather review victims' social rights—including the right to assistance—instead of codifying rights that already exist. I don't know if you understand my point.
