We're back for our second panel.
We're really pleased to have two, I would say, intelligent witnesses with us today. From Battered Women's Support Services in B.C., we have Angela Marie McDougall, executive director; and Rona Amiri, violence prevention coordinator.
By video conference, we have Dee Dooley, youth programs coordinator at the YWCA Halifax location. She's also a recipient of the 2015 Governor General's Award in Commemoration of the Persons Case.
Welcome to all of you and thank you for coming.
We're going to start with 10-minute opening statements.
We'll begin with Angela Marie MacDougall.
