Through the federal strategy, as the minister said, we've spent over $30 million in research since 2017, and that has given us three new national surveys, including an ability to better understand intimate partner violence. Through that strategy, since 2015, we've also invested $213 million in 557 projects that have reached nearly 1.3 million women. That's 1.3 million women who have had programs and supports related to gender-based violence, because of this federal framework.
As the minister has already said, during the pandemic, we have invested over $122 million in over 1,300 shelters, sexual assault centres, and other gender-based violence organizations, which have reached more than 1.3 million women.
