Garry Breitkreuz at the Public Safety and National Security Committee

I'd like to bring this meeting to order.

This is the Standing Committee on Public Safety and National Security, meeting number ten. We are going to have a briefing today on the latest report of the federal ombudsman for victims of crime.

We'd like to welcome Mr. Steve Sullivan, the federal ombudsman for victims of crime, to our committee.

The usual practice of this committee is to allow you an opening statement of about ten minutes and then we'll go to questions and comments. Whenever you're ready, sir, you may begin.
