He killed her. Actually, he's accused of killing her.
Thank you, Ms. Boucher.
Ms. Brown, you said you wanted the current wording of section 264 of the Criminal Code to remain intact. It uses a subjective test, as opposed to an objective one. Here's the difference. Under the new wording proposed in Bill C‑16, it's sufficient for the woman to fear for her safety, but under the current wording, it's necessary to demonstrate that the fear is objective, that anyone else would have or may have been scared.
Do you really believe that we should keep the current test, that the subjectivity of the situation shouldn't be taken into account?
