Context: House Hansard - 70 - May/12/22
Ms. Andréanne Larouche (Shefford, BQ)
Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his speech on the bill. As he mentioned, this week, we are highlighting the importance of jurors' work within our justice system. Jury duty is an obligation. Because it is an obligation, the government has to help jurors as best it can by making their task less arduous. The testimony in certain trials can be difficult to listen to. Would recognizing the possibility of PTSD in that context be a way to help jurors in some of these cases?
