Public Safety committee  We have, in the past, sent victims information proactively that they did not ask for. This has raised issues in the past with victims—where they've asked us not to send this information. As Ms. Gagnon said, we try to tailor the service to what the victims want. We have proactive discussions and share with the victims all of the information available to them in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) under subsection 26(1).

Public Safety committee  I'm not aware that we've ever done that. Usually, if a victim calls with questions, we can identify a means to provide that information. We will ask them if they want to receive it. For example, if they have lots of questions about the offender's rehabilitation and participation in programs, we'll suggest they might want to proactively receive the correctional plan progress report, but we don't automatically send it based on previous feedback to the program.

Justice committee  Every offender from their intake works on a correctional plan that they work through during the course of their sentence, which outlines various programs and options for rehabilitation. Those programs are meant to treat criminogenic factors. Rehabilitation takes more than that. That includes accountability and recognition of their crime.

Justice committee  Yes, I will send them to you.

Justice committee  No, but I can certainly send you that information.

Justice committee  The $38 million mentioned was used to improve services to victims. In terms of other components, since 2015, provinces and territories have received $13 million for Bill of Rights implementation, $23 million for Family Information Liaison Units, and $32.5 million over five years for legal advice.
