Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to all of the witnesses for being here to help us with this very important subject.
Every six days in Canada a woman is killed by intimate partner violence. It's clear to me that none of the actions that have been put in place works. Many of these women don't leave. I'm certainly well acquainted with coercive control. Even if they get a no-contact order, it doesn't work. People violate them. Nothing happens, and then they kill their partner.
I'd like to start with Ms. Coyle.
You talked about preventive actions that we might take. Could you elaborate on those?
