Absolutely.
With a whole missing person's case, it's actually police officers, front-line officers, who don't understand how people come in to report something that's happening. Then when they go out there, they're using laws that they might not understand, that have changed, and so on. For example, right now, police officers are directed to connect with the Crown in Ontario before they lay a charge. That's actually really good news, but only a few officers know that.
There's work being done that's really good in addressing it. However, these overarching principles and laws that exist allow for misinterpretation and misrepresentation within communities. If only a few people have that knowledge, that knowledge gets misused, and by the time an individual goes through the system and comes out at the other end, it's again reported in media in certain ways and then there is an impact on a lot more people. They're not going to get tested or they're going to actually delay getting tested, delay getting access to treatment and delay getting support.
That's how it plays out in the real-life world. Again, our justice system is fair and just. That's what I'd like to believe. We have processes in place, but as I said in my statement, if we can't engage and support individuals working together as community individuals, legal representatives and government officials to sit down and really look at local situations and have conversations and hash out how this is actually going to happen, taking from policy to practice is actually quite challenging. However, it becomes easier when you do it all together.
