Thank you, Madam Chair.
I would say, at first glance, that I am not in favour of this amendment because I think it puts a higher threshold on the victims of intimate partner violence when it comes to being able to access a peace bond. The original amendment G-3 would actually make it easier for victims of intimate partner violence to get a peace bond. This subamendment would put further barriers back in place.
Rather than try to make this argument myself, I'm wondering if our bureaucrats who are here in the room, our witnesses, would perhaps answer for us what they think this amendment would do to the legislation.
