Statement made on 20 October 2010 by Senator Rose-Marie Losier-Cool
Hon. Rose-Marie Losier-Cool:
Honourable senators, my question is for the Leader of the Government in the Senate. We are all familiar with the disturbing statistics. Not a week goes by without reports in the media about some form of violence against women: rape, spousal abuse, murder and other gruesome crimes.
On November 25, 2008, that other place unanimously passed a motion to develop a violence prevention strategy to end violence against women.
Can the Leader of the Government tell us if her government has abided by the motion and developed such a strategy?
