Thank you, Mr. Chair.
My questions are for Ms. Coyle.
Ms. Coyle, in your opening remarks, you said that it was important for victims and offenders to feel protected.
In your experience, are you able to tell us whether the current system adequately protects victims and offenders before the courts, for instance?
In Quebec, we have the network of Centres d'aide aux victimes d'actes criminels, or CAVAC. These are 17 centres whose multidisciplinary teams are mandated to help victims and their families. According to members of this network, there aren't enough services in place to provide this protection.
