I fully understand what you're saying, but that's not quite what I was getting at. I didn't mean a place where people could make confidential reports. What I meant was an independent board that would take complaints in cases where the individual didn't want to report the behaviour to a superior. The board would then decide on the consequences. Earlier we talked about suspensions and other possible forms of discipline.
It's just an idea. It's not easy to explain in the short time we have. Basically, the board would conduct investigations. As things stand, the RCMP has a long history of problems across the entire organization, throughout the ranks. This approach would address the problem externally, from outside the RCMP structure, in order to deal with the real issue. At any rate, it's one suggestion.
I would also like to talk to you about your article, “In Harm's Way: Factors Related to Psychological Distress Following Sexual Harassment”. You did a lot of work on the myths surrounding rape. Could you briefly explain to us how, through your research, you were able to come to the conclusion that we need to work on dispelling those myths?
