Yes, I'll start, and if I may, I'll turn to my colleague, Madam Bouchard, to continue.

To start with, the federal government made available through the Victims Fund, for provinces and territories, approximately $10.6 million over the years from 2016 to 2020 to help support the implementation of the CVBR in their jurisdictions.
