Status of Women committee  Thank you for your concern about the health and well-being of our non-profit sector and the workers. There are two pieces I would pull apart there. The first is the necessity to support the workers we've talked about and the flexibility to respond to a second wave and beyond. Th

Status of Women committee  I can answer that question more directly. The portion of funding that we received from the emergency community support fund has been distributed provincially, based on population, actually. The proportional amount United Way received in Manitoba would follow that same logic. It'

Status of Women committee  I don't know the answer to that question, unfortunately, given that I don't know what the allocations were to the other intermediaries.

Finance committee  Indigenous communities are clearly within the federal jurisdiction. I know from my own research that child poverty is an especially serious issue among indigenous people and that we need to study this question and provide housing solutions for families living on reserve. We need
