“I am sorry for the families who were hurt. A judge made this ruling based on the evidence, but we will review it and keep supporting the families.”

Mr. Speaker, let me first express my deepest condolences to the families impacted by this horrific act. The decision of the Federal Court yesterday is that of a judge who, based on the evidence in front of him, made that decision. Having said that, we will review the decision and we look forward to supporting the families in every way we can.
