With regard to girls and women's exposure to domestic violence, I know that in a previous incarnation this committee did an extremely valuable report on aboriginal family violence that pointed out some concerns. Certainly in my role as a representative for children and youth, children who witness family violence are harmed by it as if they experienced it themselves, which places them at risk.
Sur le plan de l'exposition des filles et des femmes à la violence familiale, je sais que, par le passé, votre comité a déjà élaboré un rapport très important sur la violence familiale chez les Autochtones dans lequel étaient soulevées certaines préoccupations.
