I know this was a recommendation of the “Rebuilding Trust” report. I've had exchanges with MNAs in Quebec City, who explained that training in coercive control was a recommendation, but that criminalizing these behaviours was more of a federal responsibility. I know there are specialized courts. So I imagine that this training, which is being tested in Quebec right now, stems from that recommendation.
