I appreciate the question, Niki, and I know you trust me enough to let me pivot a bit here, because I'm going to do that.
I was trying to make the point earlier about the instruments of hope that everybody who is part of this committee and the entire Parliament have before them. These are the housing strategy, coupled with the national action plan and the child care plan.
It's important to take a step back and ask, “Treasury Board and cabinet, can we carve off some money and start to look at demonstration communities that actually use the money collectively?” We keep siloing everything off, and we're not building real solutions. We're not going to build them off the backs of these women's organizations and shelters. We have to take social responsibility across it and not download it onto women's shelters and transition houses. It's time for us to take a step back and do the big-picture thing.
As I said, the instruments of hope are in front of us. It's time for us to get serious.
Thank you.
