Canadian Heritage committee  I can answer the first question, about a national inquiry. I definitely think it's necessary to look not just at high-profile sports such as hockey and soccer. We need a very clear understanding of the big picture. It's also important to make sure that any recommendations that come from the inquiry are implemented.

Canadian Heritage committee  I wanted to leave my fellow witnesses time to answer as well. I definitely see a problem with the non-disclosure agreements. I think victims should be protected first and foremost. I also think they are in the best position to know how they would be affected if the abuse came out or didn't.

Canadian Heritage committee  Victims should absolutely be at the heart of all decision-making. Keep in mind that many people put their hearts and souls into the sport system, from administrators to those in other roles, and those people need support to implement a safe sport system. Thank you.

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. Thank you for inviting me. This is my third appearance before a parliamentary committee. I appreciate the opportunity to contribute to the process aimed at improving the sport system. As Ms. Béliveau mentioned, I'm here in my capacity as director of Laboratoire de recherche pour la progression des femmes dans les sports au Québec, a new research lab focused on advancing women in sport in Quebec.
