We share a lot of common ground, based on what she said, and I know that she has been through some truly horrific experiences in her life, which have left their mark on her. When she talks to us today about fighting crime or the importance of tackling it, she is also drawing on her personal experience. I know that she is also a problem solver.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8874813\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I have already asked this question before, but this time I am asking her. The Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois has proposed that better guidelines be issued regarding the Jordan decision and that offences related to sexual crimes, terrorism and firearms not be subject to the Jordan decision.
