Mr. Speaker, the reality is that there are still far too few shelters and resources for women in the north. Despite the fact that they face a much higher likelihood of violence, women in the north are 10 times more likely to be sexually assaulted. Inuit women and girls are 14 times more likely to experience violence.
All the government has offered are failed initiatives. Why will the government not announce a real action plan, with real measures, to address violence in the north?
