🇨🇦 A significant change is coming to Canada’s criminal justice system.
As of Wednesday, a private member’s bill introduced by a Conservative MP has officially become law, strengthening the country’s response to intimate partner violence.
The legislation updates the Criminal Code so that anyone who kills their intimate partner can be charged with first-degree murder, even if prosecutors cannot prove the act was planned or deliberate in advance.
Supporters say the change recognizes the unique and serious nature of intimate partner violence, ensuring harsher penalties and greater accountability for offenders.
The move marks a major shift in how Canada addresses intimate partner violence and reflects growing calls for stronger protections for victims and survivors.
