Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Today I join critics from the NDP, the Bloc and the Green Party who deal with women's issues and gender equality to ask where the $75 million toward sexual exploitation and human trafficking has gone. Last week organizations had to close their doors and the programs that help vulnerable women and girls, so the simple question is this: Where is the money?

Mr. Chair, let me begin by thanking the member for that very important question.
I agree that human trafficking, which is a crime of coercion and exploitation, is unacceptable, and we have to ensure that we provide the supports necessary to the victims of this crime.
As the member knows, we have launched a new, comprehensive national strategy to combat human trafficking, and we've incorporated a new pillar in that strategy of empowerment to ensure that the focus—

With all due respect, it's great that we have a strategy, but when money is not going to the doors of these organizations that provide these services, a strategy is nothing. It's all talk and no action. Where's the money?

Mr. Chair, let me pick up where my honourable colleague left off by acknowledging that trafficking is a heinous crime and that hundreds of organizations across the country are working to solve the challenges that come with human trafficking.
I remind my honourable colleague that hundreds of organizations have received supports, and we will have more to announce to further support—

Thank you very much.
Yesterday I happened to be part of the health committee, and the Battered Women's Support Services representative was there as a witness. She shared with me that the organizations that she is associated with, over 500 organizations that deal with sexual assault and shelters, did not receive funding. Can you explain why?

Mr. Chair, I want to thank Angela and the team at the Battered Women's Support Services. They are receiving funds through Feminists Deliver, but there are hundreds of organizations that will receive additional funds to provide the critical care that they need to support front lines and the most vulnerable in their communities, and we will have more to say soon.

Human trafficking is a horrible crime that is hurting women, girls and marginalized people. Last September the Liberal government announced a $75-million commitment for a national strategy against human trafficking. However, organizations that provide long-term support to trafficked and sexually exploited women and girls are being cut. The London Abused Women's Centre is now forced to shut down its programs.
Where is the funding the government promised, and why is it letting these important programs end?

Madam Chair, I want to thank everybody on the front lines of the work to support survivors of gender-based violence, including human trafficking.
My colleague is absolutely right. We put forward a plan with $75 million, and $10 million of that will specifically provide empowerment supports to survivors. To date, over 500 organizations have received emergency COVID funding from our government, in addition to hundreds that had received capacity-building funds.
We're not done yet, Madam Chair, and we will have more to say in the near future.

Madam Chair, the funding was meant to allow organizations to provide support for victims and survivors of human trafficking.
Why aren't they receiving these funds to continue that important work? Has the government abandoned the fight against human trafficking?
