Leah, you and I have done some great work together. I think about Velma's House in Winnipeg Centre. When I first visited Velma's House, there were women sleeping under the porch. There were meals being churned out—I don't know how—on a rickety stove. I will never forget a woman named Swan, who said to me that this house can't go and that they need this place; it keeps them safe.
It was our government that stepped up and provided the funding needed for Velma's House to move into another facility.
Here's what I'm saying about that with regard to shelters and shelter space. When I saw that, I asked for half a billion dollars to support our national action plan to end gender-based violence and I got it. I saw that situation and I said that it can't continue. I said that we need it long term, that we need to put teeth behind our national action plan, and I got it.
