Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Anderson‑Pyrz, you specifically represent women from various Indigenous communities who survived gender- and race-based violence. We can understand that, given their experiences, some people hesitate to file a complaint. In some cases, they're afraid their complaints won't be sent, or that they won't lead to any results. They don't want to relive a traumatic experience that thrusts them back into memories they don't want to go through again.
What do you think of the idea of allowing third parties, specifically organizations like yours, to file complaints on behalf of some people? It could even just be filing a complaint about a systemic problem that women may have told you about, such as the behaviour of Canada Border Services Agency or Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers.
Do you agree with this proposal, which some organizations made a few times? We're trying to see how we could include it in the bill. From what I heard, comments about it are rather positive.
What do you think of this proposal?
