Thank you very much for that.
We note that Mr. McPhail mentioned on Tuesday that independence is key to credibility, so bolstering an independent avenue for complaints is certainly something that we on this side hope will be considered and implemented.
I represent northern Manitoba, an area that is serviced by the RCMP. I've had the pleasure of working with many great RCMP officers across our region. I know a lot of the recruitment they do is with young aboriginal people and increasingly with young aboriginal women. When we look at the case of B.C., however, the recent Human Rights Watch report indicates that many women have gone through some very difficult situations, such as abuse, and are reticent to come forward. It's not unlike women who have been in the force themselves.
What are you doing as “E” Division to deal with these allegations? What kind of training that involves both anti-sexism and anti-racism training are you implementing for your officers so that this kind of abuse doesn't happen, so that one day, these young aboriginal women will see the RCMP and the police as an avenue where they can work as well?
