Domestic violence: “We will not put the burden on the victim” – Annick Brazeau – Le Journal de Montréal

The sayings Lawyers from the show Les Justiciers Just don’t go to the president of the Association of Homes for Women Victims of Domestic Violence. For Annick Brazeau, what is presented in the program broadcast on Noovo is counterproductive.

“We encourage women to come forward,” she said. A show like this undermines our work a little.”

Ms. Brazeau also explained that the discourse used by lawyers is an “old discourse” of placing the hatred of domestic violence on the victim. According to her, this poses some risk to vulnerable people.

Furthermore, she believes that the attackers may see this type of speech as trivializing their actions, not to mention the victims who may choose to remain silent rather than be judged like the young woman in the incident.
