I would absolutely agree. I think the shelters we have are doing a remarkable job with very limited resources. If I could see a huge cash influx to allow them to hire more staff and expand beds on the front line, that would be amazing.
Second, definitely it's affordable, safe housing for when women are leaving and transitioning back into living arrangements with their children on their own.
Third, I would also like to see a lot more money in prevention across the country so that we can reach our youngest children who are starting school. It's great that we're going in at Grade 9 across Ontario, but in many ways that's too late in my opinion, and we need to be much earlier talking about respect in relationships and how we solve our problems in respectful ways with each other.
