Deputy Chief, you are the co-chair on the crime prevention, community safety and well-being committee of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police. Combatting coercive control is one of your key priorities. We heard from a previous witness, Pierre Brochet, that he believes criminalizing coercive control could not only reinforce section 810 of the Criminal Code, but replace it.
What are your thoughts on this, and do you agree?
