Mr. Chair, I find it ironic that while her government and her party was in government she sat by and did nothing. We have seen aboriginal women be the victims of violence in Canada. It is appalling that we are on the list and have been denoted as not doing enough.
We are acting. We are committed and support Sisters in Spirit on an ongoing basis with funding. We also have instituted legislation which will protect aboriginal women and ensure they are safety in their communities.
