Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for being here. I very much appreciate your presence and your testimony.
I have some questions for Ms. Jarvis and Ms. Merlo.
Thank you very much for your courage and for sharing your thoughts and your lived experience of how this bill can be improved to better protect RCMP officers themselves, along with others who are making complaints.
I have some questions on how we can address some of the things you've said. I think we're hearing commonality with others who have come forward.
When the CBSA frontline union president, Mark Weber, was here, he mentioned that there are cases. He gave the example that there was a middle manager who had ordered a strip search of a busload of kids. He wants to see Bill C-20 have the ability for officers to make those complaints about their superiors, certainly when they impact the public, or perhaps in your case, other officers.
I got the sense that you share that perspective. Could you provide a bit more information on how Bill C-20 should be improved in that regard?
