Thank you very much for that honest answer. I'd like to talk about families—past, present and future—and the work you've done to help advocate for other families. Unfortunately, sometimes people still fall through the cracks. Could you elaborate on any groups of parents or families who might still fall through the cracks under this bill? Are there any amendments you might have, with your [more]
Thank you very much, Chair. I would love to thank all the witnesses we have here today, especially those on our witness panel—and also those colleagues with us today—who have served in the past and are veterans themselves. I have a family where my ex-husband was in the service and did tours in Syria, Lebanon and Israel. I'm very well aware of some of those traumas that come after having served, [more]
Thank you. I'd now like to turn my questioning to Veterans Affairs. It's a similar line of questioning. Could you let our committee know the kinds of success indicators that VAC looks at, such as participation progress, completion of rehabilitation plans and client experiences?
Thank you very much, Chair. Thank you, Ms. Koop, for being here. Thank you for what you're doing for other families. That's what women do sometimes. It's cathartic for us to help others who have been in similar situations. The courage you're demonstrating today and your knowledge of the human side of this law aren't being taken for granted by us.

Thank you very much. Do you have any examples or indicators from veterans? That was from your service providers. As my colleague across the way mentioned earlier, veterans are at the heart of what we're doing, so I want some examples from actual veterans.
In terms of learning a lot, could you—or your associate beside you—give us an example of those course corrections, seeing as how you have that whole sheet in front of you? What is the feedback you've received? Is there an example of that course correction when something wasn't going well? What do those newly developed criteria look like?
Mr. Speaker, on March 8, we marked International Women's Day, a time to celebrate the achievements of women and to recommit ourselves to building a country where every woman and girl can safely reach their full potential. Gender-based violence continues to affect far too many women across Canada. In my own province of Nova Scotia and in communities across my riding of South Shore—St. Margarets, [more]
That's wonderful. My second question on that is, how important do you think job protection leave under the Canada Labour Code is for ensuring that grieving parents can take the time they need without the fear of reprisal or losing employment?
Thank you for your research on this important topic. I'd like to turn to Ms. Venditti. C-222 Ms. Venditti, are there any amendments you would recommend for Billas it stands at this point?
That was for Ms. Nadeau and Mr. Sauvé. Sorry, I thought I was clear with that. C-225 We're asking Ms. Nadeau. There is a part in Billwhere it would remove police discretion to release an accused in certain IPV cases. How do you find this would affect frontline policing? Would it lead to more bail hearings in provincial courts than prosecutors could realistically handle?
In the minute and a half I have left, I'd love to ask Mr. Sauvé the same question in regard to how he feels this will affect frontline policing.
