Madam Speaker, we look forward to answering our colleagues' questions, but I do feel it is important to recognize the gravity of this day. It is the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. Thirty-five years ago, 14 women's lives were cut short in a brutal act of violence at École Polytechnique. They were killed simply because they were women. Gender-based violence must not be tolerated in this country, and we all have a role to play in ending it.
In the House of Commons on December 6th, 2024. See this statement in context.
