Earlier this month, the Manitoba Advocate for Children and Youth’s office raised the alarm about a record number of youth dying because of intimate partner violence, addictions and suicide. The independent agency pointed to a “shared failure” between various government departments to take action to curb deaths, calling their progress on its recommendations “unacceptably slow.”
In July, 2023, Manitoba signed a bilateral agreement with Ottawa to end gender-based violence. The federal government has committed $22.3-million over four years to support the implementation of its national action plan with funding earmarked to enhance support services for those impacted by gender-based violence and for prevention initiatives in the province.
