S4 E19: MP Melissa Lantsman on Bill C-225 Intimate Partner Violence
Q: What role do victims' families play in shaping legislation like Bailey McCourt's case, and how does advocacy influence passage?
Victims' families can become powerful advocates, keeping the issue in the public eye, guiding policymakers with real-life consequences, and sometimes accelerating support for reform, though it also highlights the political and procedural hurdles such bills face in committee and across parties.
S4 E19: MP Melissa Lantsman on Bill C-225 Intimate Partner Violence
Q: Why is Bill C-225 considered an important yet divisive reform, and what are the key components being debated?
The bill seeks to treat intimate partner murders as first-degree in more scenarios, alongside existing categories for similar offences; supporters argue it strengthens deterrence and protects victims, while critics worry about scope, unintended consequences, and the impact on the justice system.
