Madam Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for his speech.
I had the opportunity to speak at second reading of this bill, and I listened to the speeches given by my other colleagues.
One point that kept coming up from the Conservative side was about protecting victims. It was pointed out that, in the review process, victims' views were perhaps not sufficiently taken into account in cases where a sanction was warranted, but not necessarily removal.
However, an amendment adopted in committee would allow for victims to at least be notified of the reasons why their complaints were not successful.
Does my colleague think this is a step in the right direction? Could Bill C-9 not have done a little more to protect victims?
