“Mr. Speaker, I would like to return to the issue of transferring sexual assault cases from the military justice system to the civilian justice system, as well as to the amendment aimed at granting victims the right to speak, or even a right of veto, so that they can make a choice in this regard. I know that my colleague is an experienced social worker. She has extensive experience in mediation and conciliation. She has met many people in her career. I would like her to speak to us about the importance of respecting victims in this type of situation.”

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 20 wordsI am no longer a member of my professional association of social workers, 1so I cannot use that title anymore.Reasoning · 94 wordsHowever, I had a very rewarding career as a social worker that helped me to realize that when we are helping or supporting a victim, their consent is important.It is also important to understand how the victim wants to approach the process, how they want to go about it, so that they can feel as though justice has been served for the injuries, violence and harassment they experienced and for their work environment’s failure to listen and to provide support.In that sense, I think that the decision should rest with the victims.The question · 34 wordsSince I did not participate in the work of the committee, I would also like to understand why the government did not agree that victims should have the right to make their own decisions.
