The RCMP maintains a victim assistance policy that requires members to inform victims of the services provided by victim services and to make an offer for referral with consent. I speak to that specifically because this refers to any person or group that is susceptible to physical or emotional injury: a person who is vulnerable because of their age, disability, or other circumstances, whether temporary or permanent, and is in a position of dependence.
Whether it's through victim services or the investigation itself, a person's age could very well be referenced in the court documents presented to crown counsel. On where it goes from there, I'm not in a position to speak to that, of course, because that's in the Department of Justice.
