Thank you, Mr. Chair.

I thank all the witnesses—Ms. Diamond, Ms. Way and Ms. Gee—for being with us today.

Ms. Way, in your presentation, you talked about problems with the presumption of innocence. I'd like you to tell us more about it. If these Criminal Code amendments pass, what problems do you foresee when it comes to the presumption of innocence?
