Just to your last comment—I don’t know if you realize we’re losing 315 acres of prime farmland every day in the province of Ontario. If we can’t feed ourselves—I thought COVID-19 would have taught us something—we’re going to be in big trouble. So my suggestion is, stop attacking our farmers and protect our farmland.

I think we’re all happy in here—and I’m talking about all my colleagues—there was an important victory for workers yesterday. I don’t know if you all heard about it. I know the PCs say they work for workers; they have bills for workers. The Ontario Superior Court of Justice has struck down Bill 124 in its entirety.

Interjections.

It violates the fundamental constitutional rights of collective bargaining.

Do you agree with that decision?

Ma question est pour le premier ministre.

Today’s Auditor General’s report put in writing what we already knew: Ontario’s vaccine rollout was sloppy and uncoordinated. The government didn’t listen to public health experts and let 3.4 million vaccine—

Interjections.

Why did the government not listen to public health experts during the vaccine rollout?

Why did the government undermine public confidence in COVID-19 vaccination?

I’m pleased to be able to support the motion from my colleague representing Oakville–North Burlington, in particular that the government should consult with the public and its partners in the Family Court system to promote, and ensure the availability of, continuing education seminars for professionals in the Family Court system.

One such partner who can assist the government with this critical consultative and continuing educational process is Luke’s Place, situated in Oshawa in the region of Durham, who I have worked with for a number of years at a number of levels, some personal. Luke’s Place Support and Resource Centre for Women and Children is a non-profit centre of excellence devoted to improving the safety and experience of women and their children. They’re the only stand-alone family law support centre in Canada for women who have been subjected to intimate partner violence. They provide direct services to hundreds of women and their children every year and share their expertise with other stakeholders, as cited in the motion, through training programs, resources, tools, research and mentoring.

What’s clear, as statistics and reports have highlighted, as well as the member from Oakville North–Burlington, is violence against women increased and intensified under COVID-19. I saw evidence of that, unfortunately, in the region of Durham.

Speaker, I am pleased to say that Luke’s Place stands ready and able to help effect the intent and purpose, the important purpose, of the motion before us this evening.

I thank my colleague in Oakville North–Burlington for bringing this important motion before us this evening. I urge all members here tonight to support it as well.
