No, I have not. As I alluded to at the outset, I first became aware of this gap in the Criminal Code, the fact that acts of torture that are carried out in the private sphere are not recognized as torture in our law, when I was teaching human rights policy.
I certainly consulted with victims on this. You might wonder why victims aren't speaking. I think one of the reasons that victims have had difficulty coming forward is the experience. This experience is quite traumatizing, as you might well imagine. It's traumatizing and scarring. It's been very difficult for victims to come forward. I think when Jeanne and Linda speak, they will testify to that fact.
