Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Thank you, Minister, for being here. It's good to be able to ask you some specific questions.
I have very little time, but I would like you to address a little more specifically what you're doing and what Status of Women Canada is doing to address violence against women. With the economic downturn, I think we're going to see more violence against women and against children. I'm wondering what we are doing to specifically protect women and children.
