Mr. Speaker, our government is focused on taking action to actually deal with the tragic issue of missing and murdered aboriginal women.
For example, we recently passed legislation that gives women living on first nations reserves the same matrimonial rights as all Canadians, including access to emergency protection orders in violent situations. Unfortunately, the opposition parties voted against that legislation and against advancing the rights of first nations women. Shame on them.
The special parliamentary committee is continuing its study, and we look forward to participating in that study.
