I appreciate the question. The member from Scarborough–Agincourt is right; there is nothing more villainous than preying on the vulnerable.

That’s why I recently announced that Ontario is investing more than $4 million across the province to help support victims and survivors of intimate partner violence, domestic violence, human trafficking and child exploitation. The funding is being delivered through the victim support grant. The victim support grant is part of Ontario’s Guns, Gangs and Violence Reduction Strategy and complements the province’s $307-million anti-human trafficking strategy. I’m proud to say that 45 police services are receiving funding through this program for 2023 and 2024.

Monsieur le Président, nous investissons de manière proactive, ciblée et précise, afin de lutter contre la criminalité et d’assurer la sécurité des collectivités.
