Thank you very much.
I have to say thank you for all the wisdom and information that you've brought to this committee, not just today but over the years that we've met to talk about the issues important to women. I also want to say thank you for What Their Stories Tell Us. It is a remarkable piece of work, and I know that we will be able to use it in order to advance the cause of ending violence and making things better for women.
I'm going to throw out some general questions. I think I might start with you, Kate.
Before I do that, I want to say to Chief Cloud that I knew Dudley George, and we miss him. It's been a great loss to all of us.
At any rate, in budget 2010, $10 million was pledged to address the issue of the missing and murdered women. It sounds like a lot of money, but it's not. It's just a very, very small beginning, I think.
I am wondering if you have been advised when that funding will flow. Have you heard when it will flow? Do you know to what degree NWAC will have a say in how the money is used? Have you been informed at all in regard to the funding and how it will be allocated?
