Status of Women committee That's a wonderful question. When we developed the victimization surveys, we took a lot of care and concern about respondents. Two strategies were used. On the individual's computer, they would follow a link to Statistics Canada and the questions would come up. There was a help

Status of Women committee Madam Chair, that's a great question. Seventeen per cent of male respondents said that in their lifetime they had experienced some form of intimate partner violence, and that was from the age of 15. You are correct. Many victims of intimate partner violence do not report to the
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting

Status of Women committee Again, that's a wonderful question. When we try to measure financial abuse, we ask a series of behavioural questions—rather than simply asking if they think they're a victim of financial abuse, which means the respondent has to label what they've experienced as abuse. In fact, w
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee Thank you for the question. In the survey of safety in public and private spaces, we did ask respondents whether they had experienced any emotional abuse and if some of it was controlling: “Did your partner blame you for the violence? Did you feel trapped?” Some of these key ind
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee We did more than that. We had physical violence and several behaviours just for physical, several behaviours for sexual and then several behaviours for emotional and psychological abuse. It did not have to include physical violence.
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee Chairwoman, that's a great question. I think Statistics Canada has done a great job, with funding from our partners, in monitoring intimate partner violence over the years. Where we understand the gaps to be is for new immigrants who don't speak English or French. They would not
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee Thank you, Chair, for the question. There are key linkages between risk of being a victim of intimate partner violence and experiencing maltreatment before the age of 15. That could include harsh parenting or witnessing violence within the home. From a child's perspective, if th

Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee We do.
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee Certainly.
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee We have no data on that specific question. We do have something I will send your way. With the survey of safety in public and private spaces, we asked a series of questions about attitudes towards gender-based violence. It was very generic. We broke it down by male and female a

Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee We can. For the first report, we didn't do a deep dive. Those are great questions. We can definitely produce it for you.
February 15th, 2022Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee We do. In the packet, we provided one table. I also have another table in the office that I can send that compares 2019 to 2020. We know that with intimate partner violence for women, the rates are higher in rural Canada than in urban areas. When we think about rural, we need t

Kathy AuCoin
Status of Women committee I would defer to the experts on the service providers, who know policy and programs.

Kathy AuCoin
Justice committee That's a great question, Madam Chair. I would suggest that a question for the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police could really focus on enforcement. When we collect police-reported data, it's all lined up with the Criminal Code. We have full coverage with all police servic
May 25th, 2021Committee meeting
Kathy AuCoin
Justice committee Thank you, Chair. That's a wonderful question. In 2008, Statistics Canada did a very comprehensive feasibility study to look at senior abuse and elder abuse to figure out how to fill a critical data gap. In having many discussions across the country with different experts, we f
