I know I have very little time, but I want to ask you about something that came up in my riding in discussions with police, who are forced to investigate family violence. One of the officers said to me that they found this section problematic for their investigations and that their investigations would be much easier if it was clear that violence against children is not acceptable.
In their investigations now, they have to consider the level of violence, whether it was appropriate and all sorts of factors that make their investigations much more difficult. That officer was a very strong proponent of your bill, saying that it would make their investigations clearer and their explanations to families much easier when violence takes place.
