Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
I want to say thank you to all the witnesses for their thoughtful presentations.
My first question is for Ms. MacDougall.
First, I want to thank you tremendously for the work you have done in our community for so many years. Funding was short for your organization even prior to COVID. With a 300% increase in demand for your services, I can't imagine the situation and the pressure that's being put on your entire organization.
You touched a little on the funding aspect. When the government announced its funding for shelters and for transition houses, your organization and others like yours did not qualify for funding.
In light of this, in terms of recommendations, did I hear you correctly that you would like to see a $20-million investment from the federal government to support your work at this time?
