I shall be brief, Madam Chair.
At one of my first meetings as a member of this Committee, Ms. Demers did indeed raise the frightening number of women who disappear without a trace. She said that we should look into it. I believe that the aboriginal community must be a part of this study in order to set things straight rather than us discussing it among ourselves.
As for the amendment that is proposed, it is obvious that we need the participation of all these people. So I support the motion.
