Ford Government Blocks Intimate Partner Violence Epidemic Declaration
For years, the Ford government has refused to formally declare intimate partner violence an epidemic in Ontario — rejecting a coroner's inquest recommendation, referring an opposition bill to committee instead of passing it, and blocking a unanimous consent motion in June 2025 — before settling in November 2025 for the weaker term "endemic," which advocates say still isn't matched by funding or action.
