Thank you so much, Chair.
I have questions for Madam Paterson, Madam Cross and Madam Strauss. I'll ask for brief responses. It's so nice to see everybody, and I just love your brains. I wish I had more time.
It's so nice to see you again, Dr. Paterson. You spoke specifically about Winnipeg and the lack of shelter, something that I'm fighting really hard about in our community. We don't have space. I ask this question because it becomes especially concerning and more volatile for women who choose to disclose something very difficult, especially if they choose to take a legal route to deal with their perpetrators. With this in mind, how important do you think it is for judges to get proper training to improve their judgment in cases of intimate partner violence?
