Madam Chair, I thank my colleague from Rosemont—La Petite-Patrie for his speech and his work.
He named the seven victims, but I would like to take a moment to do something that has not been done. I would like to offer my condolences to the friends and relatives of these seven victims and of the 160 victims who died last year in Canada, Quebec and the territories. It is important to remember these people, who are still dealing with deep trauma.
Speaking of trauma, I would like to talk about the impact of social media and how it exacerbates violence, which has worsened during the pandemic. Initiatives have been launched in Quebec, groups of parliamentarians in the National Assembly have studied this issue, and elected municipal officials are campaigning to stop online violence and end threats against female elected representatives.
