I think it's a good idea to work with the justice systems in each province. You're right. It's a problem when the data doesn't exist. However, there are a few municipalities that are able to get the information. It should be noted that the data varies from province to province.
I think it would be a good opportunity for this committee to make recommendations that improve co-operation between the provinces and identify the federal government's role.
I think data collection, in terms of what we collect, as well as in terms of uniformity and best practices, would be a huge opportunity to improve the quality of the decisions that we can make.
