Thanks so much, Chair.
Thank you to all our witnesses. Five minutes is such a short amount of time.
My first question is actually for Safe Centre of Peel.
I recently met with SafePet Ontario. I wonder if you could talk about the role that the inability to find a safe place for companion animals plays in women not being able to leave abusive relationships. The government provided the humane society of Canada funding to work with shelters, but sometimes making a shelter pet-friendly isn't the answer. I wonder if you're doing any of that at your organization.
They talked about educating the police, about having people go to hotels or finding safe foster homes for the animals, so I wonder if you could just talk about that briefly.
