Mr. Speaker, we can all agree that this is an appalling situation.
Violence against aboriginal women and violence against children, in particular, remains an enormous problem in this country, which is why, as a government, we have taken decisive action. We have, in fact, made a number of changes within the Criminal Code that put more emphasis on holding offenders accountable.
We have established and invested more than $25 million specifically on an initiative aimed at attacking this issue. We have established a National Centre for Missing Persons, enhanced the Canadian Police Information Centre database, and given police more resources.
We hope this member and her party will support this.
