I want to thank the witnesses for joining us today.
Earlier, I tried to get a sense of the situation from the Department of Justice officials. However, it was a bit difficult for them to express a personal opinion, which we understand. I suppose that it will be a little easier to get that perspective from you, since you have been on the ground since Bill C‑36 was passed.
Have the three main goals of the legislation been met? If so, was there any negative impact?
Ms. Wesley, you spoke about the negative impact on women and girls in the profession, for example. Could you elaborate on that impact?
