flag Ontario's legislative committee accelerates study on intimate partner violence due to election fears.

flag An Ontario legislative committee studying intimate partner violence has had to expedite its work due to potential early elections. flag Originally planned to be exhaustive, the study is now set to conclude by February 2025, two months earlier than initially planned. flag This has caused frustration among victims and supporters. flag The committee, co-led by Progressive Conservative Jess Dixon and New Democrat Kristyn Wong-Tam, had to cancel a planned trip to Renfrew, moving meetings to Toronto or virtual settings. flag The study aims to address the issue of intimate partner violence, which claimed the lives of 62 women in Ontario between November 2023 and November 2024, with 25 of these deaths attributed to intimate partners.
