Good morning, everybody. Thank you for visiting us today. I would really like to thank the minister for coming today.
We have lots of great questions for you as we're moving forward.
Thank you to Gina Wilson and Anik Lapointe from the Department of Status of Women for joining us.
Pursuant to Standing Order 81(5), the committee will now begin consideration of the supplementary estimates (B), vote1b under the office of the co-ordinator, referred to the committee on Thursday, October 26, 2017.
The committee is also taking this opportunity to ask questions on the government's response to the committee's seventh report, “Taking Action to End Violence Against Young Women and Girls in Canada”, as well as discussing the implementation of the gender-based analysis plus, which our committee has done such great work on.
Thank you very much for joining us today.
Minister Monsef, I'm going to pass it over to you for 10 minutes.
