Thank you.

We heard one of the witnesses last time, Jennie Dale, note that women often face a power imbalance with doctors. This makes it difficult to push back when a doctor refuses to refer them for screening. What has the impact of this power imbalance been, particularly on women of colour, indigenous women or racialized women?
