Thank you very much.
That's wonderful. Thank you very much. I'd like to turn now to marketing. I have one minute left. Mr. Steinley, I have a question with regard to some of the stakeholders within your municipalities. The government has increased its support for AgriMarketing programs. I'm wondering if you as a rancher, or some of your stakeholders throughout the municipalities, have accessed programs such as our [more]
My partner is actually a horticulturist with a couple of landscape businesses and is in fertilizer. I guess that's why I'm talking about it a lot today as well. Ms. Velestuk, go ahead.
Thank you very much. I'd like to mention to Ms. Velestuk that she can always put anything she wants to say into a brief and give that to our clerk. I feel bad. With the questions, you have lots to say. In rural communities and coastal communities like mine in Nova Scotia—I'm from South Shore—St. Margarets—we have quite a bit of agriculture even though we are coastal. It's home to Lunenburg [more]
Thank you very much, Chair. I would love to thank all the witnesses we have here today, especially those on our witness panel—and also those colleagues with us today—who have served in the past and are veterans themselves. I have a family where my ex-husband was in the service and did tours in Syria, Lebanon and Israel. I'm very well aware of some of those traumas that come after having served, [more]
Thank you. I'd now like to turn my questioning to Veterans Affairs. It's a similar line of questioning. Could you let our committee know the kinds of success indicators that VAC looks at, such as participation progress, completion of rehabilitation plans and client experiences?
Thank you very much, Chair. Thank you, Ms. Koop, for being here. Thank you for what you're doing for other families. That's what women do sometimes. It's cathartic for us to help others who have been in similar situations. The courage you're demonstrating today and your knowledge of the human side of this law aren't being taken for granted by us. Karina Gould Terry Beech C-222 I'll take a [more]
In terms of learning a lot, could you—or your associate beside you—give us an example of those course corrections, seeing as how you have that whole sheet in front of you? What is the feedback you've received? Is there an example of that course correction when something wasn't going well? What do those newly developed criteria look like?
Thank you very much for that honest answer. I'd like to talk about families—past, present and future—and the work you've done to help advocate for other families. Unfortunately, sometimes people still fall through the cracks. Could you elaborate on any groups of parents or families who might still fall through the cracks under this bill? Are there any amendments you might have, with your [more]
Thank you very much. Do you have any examples or indicators from veterans? That was from your service providers. As my colleague across the way mentioned earlier, veterans are at the heart of what we're doing, so I want some examples from actual veterans.
Mr. Speaker, on March 8, we marked International Women's Day, a time to celebrate the achievements of women and to recommit ourselves to building a country where every woman and girl can safely reach their full potential. Gender-based violence continues to affect far too many women across Canada. In my own province of Nova Scotia and in communities across my riding of South Shore—St. Margarets, [more]
