We have Dr. Jo-Anne Wemmers, who is a full professor in the School of Criminology, International Centre for Comparative Criminology at the Université de Montréal.
Lastly, we have from the Criminal Lawyers' Association, Leo Russomanno, lawyer.
I have been advised that Mr. Russomanno did not conduct his sound test before the meeting started. Mr. Russomanno, please make sure that you're speaking very slowly, clearly and loudly, so that we don't have any delays with interpretation.
As witnesses may know, I have one-minute cards and 30-second cards to help you keep time during your opening remarks.
We'll start with the honourable senator, for five minutes.
