Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions today are for the Minister responsible for the Status of Women.

Mr. Speaker, last week I tabled a policy paper from the University of Calgary that outlines it costs government more and arguably society to do nothing in the face of gender-based violence. That is, perpetrators who are overwhelmingly male get caught in the cycle of repeated violence that harms themselves, perpetuates trauma, and costs the system more. The 94 MMIWG Calls to Justice expressly ask governments to address the root causes of violence. So in alignment with that, the Call to Justice 14.12 that asks territorial governments to work with Correctional Services Canada to provide programming for men and boys that confronts and ends violence, would the Minister be willing to explore a similar model as outlined in this paper where police and social services coordinate to offer offenders rehabilitation-style programming proven in other jurisdictions to reduce recidivism? Thank you.
