Thank you for the question.
Intimate partner violence is certainly a critical problem in this country. The member would be right that this is of significant concern to the government, as the minister would have stated.
In terms of what is being done about it, I can speak broadly to the Government of Canada's overall work on gender-based violence. We have a federal strategy on gender-based violence, which actually brings in Public Safety, the RCMP and the Public Health Agency of Canada, among others. We have some very good information on our website that is very specific about what the various organizations do in that area.
As far as Women and Gender Equality is concerned, as the minister indicated, the premise of our programming is that those who are living with the situation on a daily basis are the best ones to develop the solutions. We do project work with a number of organizations who play in this space.
