Through Women and Gender Equality, we absolutely need to make sure that we're engaging with men and boys, and the reality is that every single one of us has an important role to play to make sure we're doing everything we can to end gender-based violence in this country. Some of the work we do includes funding projects that help to engage with men and boys in a healthy way to make sure we can address gender-based violence.
I recently returned from Vancouver, where I met Black Buildup. We provided $669 million to this organization. I'm really proud to say that they teach young athletes through sport to make sure that they respect, that they provide consent, that they have bystander intervention to prevent gender-based violence. It's truly investments like these that help to build a healthier culture, where respect is the norm, which is what we want, where harmful behaviours are challenged and prevented, and where everyone understands their role in preventing gender-based violence.
I do want to take a moment to thank Minister Michel for her work in recently launching a men and boys strategy on mental health. We recognize that this has been an ask. Men and boys need help, but they also need supports. For anyone who is listening to this committee, I urge you to go to the website of the Minister of Health to put forward your recommendations to make sure that men and boys get the mental health support they truly deserve.
