Thank you, Madam Chair.
I will split my time with my colleague Mr. Dechert.
Thank you both for coming. Certainly our government takes violence against women and girls very seriously. We've done a lot for women and girls in Canada, more than any other government. We're certainly glad you're here and we're glad to have this committee to see what we can do to help the women and girls out there.
The member opposite suggested that we don't want to give the same rights as other Canadians have, yet when we voted on Bill S-2, both the NDP and the Liberals didn't vote on that and support us. That was giving women and girls, and men, the same matrimonial rights that we have across Canada.
You said something when you were speaking that I'm not sure I heard right. Did you say that it's 30 times that a woman is abused before she picks up the phone? Did you say 30?
