Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I'd like to also echo my colleagues around this table in thanking all three of you for appearing today and helping guide our committee through this study of this piece of legislation.
I think we've heard you very well on the concerns you've raised on the red flag provisions of this law. I think, similar to what Mr. Lloyd was saying, that the existing avenues that we have open to people who are experiencing domestic violence.... We need to focus efforts on improving those already existing lines, and that might be the preferable route for us as parliamentarians rather than adding a new system.
Ms. Martin, maybe I can start with you.
We've heard of concerns that many people might have in contacting the police. Can you also tell us the experience that many women have with the court system? It, too, is a pretty formidable system to go through. It can be quite intimidating. We know it's quite overburdened in many areas.
Do you have any thoughts on that? If we are to add a system whereby someone goes through the court system to get an emergency prohibition order, that could also be quite a daunting task.
