Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to all of the witnesses. We're going to use a lot of your work in our final report. We could have talked with you for hours.
I want to ask just only one questions, with thanks to Ruth Elwood Martin for assembling your amazing panel. It's so smart and it's really good to hear.
I'd just like to turn my seven minutes over to the three women who have been on the inside.
Mo, Odessa, and Chas, is there anything that would make your heart sing if you saw it in our final report, something that would let you know that we had either removed some barriers or else put some more supports in place? By this I mean things that if they'd been there when you were younger, you might have avoided prison in the first place. What's missing to keep indigenous women out of jail in the first place? It might be legal aid. It might be better, more sympathetic, police. It might be no child apprehensions, no more kids in care.
The floor is yours. Tell us. Give us your best advice.
