Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to all the front-liners for what you are doing.
My first question is for the police association. With everyone staying home, we are hearing many reports of increased cases of domestic violence. In York region, domestic violence has increased by 22%. The Vancouver crisis line received a 300% increase in domestic violence calls over a three-week period. We are also hearing about stunt driving.
Can you tell us what kinds of difficulties you are facing, given the strain on resources, and speak to what kind of support is being provided to those who are fleeing from domestic violence?
