Status of Women Committee Visits NWO

A federal committee focusing on violence against aboriginal women will be paying a visit to northwestern
Ontario this week.

The Status of Women committee is traveling across Canada, and B.C. MP Cathy McLeod says they want to hear about community solutions to violence against women.

McLeod says they will be releasing a report with recommendations to the Federal Government in the Spring.

The committee will be stopping in Sioux Lookout and Thunder Bay.
