If I may, I'd like to add another detail.
The reality on the ground is that Nunavut, the Northwest Territories and Newfoundland and Labrador have no francophone women's organizations, due to a lack of funding. Some organizations in Manitoba and Saskatchewan, for example, have no core funding at all. This means that an organization that is there to give a voice to these women doesn't have the necessary resources. In these communities, there is no organization to defend the rights of francophone and Acadian women.
I'd also like to tell you about something that happened to us during the pandemic, and that has to do with the increase in violence. During the pandemic, our organization received a suspicious package, addressed to our president and signed by a group—some crude words were used. They wanted to remind us that a woman's place was in the kitchen, and told us we'd be beaten if we didn't listen. It was a very difficult time for the members of our organization. In fact, I still get goose bumps. We had to deal with this during the pandemic. The police had to take charge of the situation, but unfortunately they weren't able to determine which group the package came from. This kind of violence exists all around us. We agree that it goes beyond a comment made on social networks. Someone took the time to send us a package. So the problem is becoming more and more serious.
The reality is that women's organizations don't have access to adequate funding or services for prevention, awareness-raising and the creation of shelters or halfway houses. It doesn't exist. It exists in Ontario, but outside Ontario, it's unfortunately not a reality for francophone and Acadian women.
