Mr. Speaker, I am always amazed by how passionate my colleague is when it comes to defending the status of women.
I want to come back to something we commemorated this week, the Polytechnique. I remember very clearly that, immediately after the tragedy, there was some denial. Some people denied that women were targeted. In the case of the serial killer in Manitoba, we heard a similar denial from the police, who said that indigenous women were not targeted, that there was something else going on.
Is there any explanation for why people would deny that women and indigenous women are being targeted?
