Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I will direct my questions to Professor Wemmers in French.

We also heard Mr. Waller say that the current system doesn’t leave a lot of space for victims. We also heard Ms. Arsenault say that she did not know where to turn after her son died to find help and services.

I would like to know if you think that the Canadian Victims Bill of Rights should describe these rights in more detail. Which officials should inform victims of their rights, and when should they do so?

See context to find out what was said next.
