First of all, there isn't just one way to protect women; there are many, including the electronic bracelet and therapy for men. For 20 years now, the courts have required men with drug and alcohol problems to undergo therapy, especially young men convicted of their first crime, and it works. We have to do the same with violent men: we have to send them to therapy.
The problem is that, for the past 20 years, we've been dealing with the consequences of violence against women. We conceal them and let the men go free, but that has to be reversed, we have to let the women go free. When we conceal the women and fail to punish the men harshly, the women are imprisoned by their fear, at home. The men must be required to undergo therapy, and the women must be given tools to protect themselves. For every man who's released pending trial, there's a woman who's imprisoned by fear. We now have modern tools such as cellphones and electronic bracelets. Judges need only make use of them.
In the case I discussed with you, the Candiac case, the man killed his wife one hour after being released. However, you passed Bill C-233, which incidentally was introduced by a Liberal member, under which a man released pending trial under section 515 of the Criminal Code may be required to wear an electronic bracelet. Our judges are poorly informed about this. I'm trying to understand why they aren't aware that these tools exist and why men who promise to kill their wives are released without being monitored. They must be monitored, and we have the tools to do it.
