Thank you, Madam Chair.
Before I begin, I'd just like to take a minute and say thank you to all of you for the work you do each and every day. It is tremendously difficult work to support women and families through some of the hardest days of their lives. I know many people who work in the line of work you do often develop PTSD from hearing the stories. I know all my colleagues would like to join me in saying thank you for the work you do.
While I'm very glad to hear that Calgary has seen an increase in funds, we want to ensure that we have sustainable funding for organizations across the country and in all areas. We haven't always seen that in Ontario.
To the Calgary Immigrant Women's Association, can you discuss your thoughts on the DCO list and on conditional permanent status, please?
