Madam Speaker, I thank the member for her hard work on FEWO. Certainly, she brings up a lot of good points about Bill S-205. I was proud to sponsor that on behalf of Senator Boisvenu, who has since retired but certainly made it his life's mission to protect women from violent offenders and abusers.
The member has pointed out a number of things that happened at status of women last year by Liberal and NDP members who looked to gut the bill. Really, the goal of that bill was to ensure that an abuser, an intimate partner, who is a life threat or a physical threat to a woman and her children, was held accountable. What ended up passing was one good step, but there were many provisions to be tough on those abusers, to keep them away from the people they violate and abuse, that were gutted by Liberal and NDP members. That is just another example of them going soft on the criminals at the cost of the victim's safety. We can go on all day, in fact, about what they have done.
