Ms. Cartwright, you also drew a connection between abuse against animals and abuse against humans, especially children. What are the implications of that observation in terms of how crimes against animals are dealt with in Canada?
Do crimes need to be more tailored to the contextual approach saying that if somebody's abusing an animal in a home, for example, there is a stronger likelihood of there being child abuse? Do you think that our Criminal Code needs to take that into account, in terms of designing its crimes and sentencing?
