My first question is for you, Ms. Butt. When I was on this committee in 2017 and we did the gender-based violence against young women and girls study, there was a lot of discussion about whether we should be focusing on a federal action plan or a national action plan. The difference is that the federal one is for the areas that are specifically in federal jurisdiction and could be done immediately, whereas the national one means having to coordinate with all the other levels of government, including provinces and territories.
You mentioned in your opening remarks the gender-based violence strategy, the whole-of-government approach. I don't want to leave it to seem as though because we haven't launched a national action plan, this means there hasn't been anything done. I wonder if you could elaborate on the federal side, the gender-based violence strategy.
As well, how is it going with the provinces and territories? How receptive are they? How might COVID have impacted the ability to be able to do those negotiations in order to get to the national action plan?
