I'm very glad women's rights and abuse were brought up earlier by my colleagues here.
You mentioned from the get-go that you're very passionate about the bill because of the impact on victims, and you want the crime to be named as such. If it was torture then it should be called torture.
I notice that in the bill as drafted, there is a higher burden on a prosecutor to prove in court whether or not torture occurred. We already acknowledge that in the justice system that women, specifically, and vulnerable people go through a lot of stress, especially in trying to get a conviction. I think victims suffer a lot in the courts. How do you think this extra element, with respect to proving that torture occurred, will impact victims, and how does that outcome compare with what you wanted the outcome of the bill to be?
