Ms. Melanie Omeniho at the Public Safety and National Security Committee

I just want to finish by saying that many of our women reported to us when we were working on the missing and murdered indigenous women and girls profile that many of them ended up being victims of police services as well, so they never felt safe accessing police when they were victims of violence themselves. Changing policing and how we do business is a very important part of what we want to see done.

I thank you for this opportunity.
