Thank you for your answer, Ms. Kelly.
A question comes to mind, but I will first tell you about something that happened in my riding some 10 years ago. There is an aboriginal community called Wendake in my riding, Louis-Saint-Laurent. Konrad Sioui had just been elected grand chief by the members of his community. In the months following his appointment, a major police operation was conducted to close smoke shacks selling tobacco.
That police operation was successful because the police officers who intervened in the targeted locations were aboriginals. Of course, they had the support of Sûreté du Québec and the RCMP, but those organizations were not on the ground, since they remained behind. Those who made the arrests were aboriginals. So aboriginals arrested aboriginals.
I am telling you this story as a lead-up to the following question. Do you think prison life would be positively impacted if the correctional officers, who are in direct contact with the inmates, were aboriginal women?
