Canada-Québec Agreement to Address Gender-Based Violence

SO230253

$97,325,000.00

Apr 1, 2023 - Mar 31, 2027

This 4 years federal–provincial agreement will address gender-based violence. Gender-based violence is a priority for the Government of Québec, which has invested significant funds to end violence against women. However, although it supports the overall objectives of the National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence, the Government of Québec cannot adhere to it because it intends to retain its full responsibility in this area on its territory. Through an agreement that respects its autonomy, the Government of Québec expects to receive its fair share of federal funding to support the programs, initiatives, and services to end gender-based violence that it puts in place based on the needs of its territory.
