“Changes to protect women's rights have been too slow, but we have made progress over the last decade. Our government will keep passing laws to better protect women and children.”
“Mr. Speaker, a ton of changes have happened, but they have all been too slow. It seems that it takes a long time to start to really understand some of the difficulties different people, women in particular, are facing. I am very proud of what has happened in the last 10 or 12 years as, really, women’s rights have been getting the attention they need as we all move forward collectively to ensure that women’s rights are protected. We will make sure that women such as those I met a couple of weeks ago know that their government is concerned about them and will continue to move forward legislation that will better protect them and better protect our children.”
