Thank you, Madam Chair.
I think a theme that we are consistently seeing here is that of self-government and self-determination for indigenous people. Self-determination is a Conservative principle, so I'd just like to start by saying that.
Kathryn, something that really strikes me is how you mentioned that among those who had committed violent crimes, it was often in self-defence. In your opinion, should this, and how could this, be recognized and compensated for in sentencing?
