Mr. Speaker, we know a lot of these issues belong under provincial jurisdiction. However, we have identified a major issue. We know so many people are stepping forward. They are facing these challenges and simply do not have the resources they need. There has been a continuous call from service providers and from victims across the country for these resources. The government says it is a feminist government. It could absolutely step up and provide some resources for this much-needed plan and ensure those people are never without the representation they deserve.
In the House of Commons on June 15th, 2017. See this statement in context.
