Conservatives got what they 'wanted' because the Liberals and NDP are more petty. All the committee had to do was to get this matter deal with, chastise the Conservatives and deal with the committee proceedings separately. Instead they chose to hijack the committee for their own political motivations.
What did the Liberals and NDP want by bringing forth a vote on an abortion motion to silence the witnesses and topic?
They could have come out of this without smelling like cow dung or it making the news.

The conservatives set up the victims knowing that there not following the procedure would lead to this outcome. If you are concerned for the victims what the conservatives did, especially if they were not informed of exactly what was going to happen is pretty disgusting.

You are a victim of violent abuse and feel the system has failed you. In the case of Walker you have sent a letter to the PM advocating for the government to add femicide to the criminal code only to be ignored. You see all premiers sign a letter for bail reform a few days prior. You are invited by a Conservative MP to provide testimony the House of Commons Standing Committee on the Status of Women to speak in an impromptu meeting to discuss violence against women and bail reform.
Who would you be disgusted with here? The ones who called you as a witness to speak of an important topic, or the ones who hijacked the topic and gaslighting you about being revictimized and saying how cruel it is to be brought to a committee to relive your trauma?
To claim the victims were setup by the Conservatives is quite an odd take. There was no setup to be had if Liberals and NDP just acted normal and professional (even if you feel that the Conservatives were rotten for calling this meeting).
