The government should fund research into appropriate treatments.
@9HXZTXM1yr1Y
There needs to be more mental health care professionals as so many people are falling through the cracks and not getting help
@9F5KMPV2yrs2Y
Therapy and counseling should be free . A person cannot be physically healthy if they are mentally ill. Mental health care should be included in universal health care. We need to be researching mental illness more and give more funding so people who are in need get quality therapy. Diagnosing mental disorders should be free as well.
@9FGPSTV2yrs2Y
We need the mentally ill medicated and not wandering the streets homeless.
@B3BDTW54wks4W
Yes, Only if the treatment will be provided at near cost and be released to the public domain after a period of no longer then 10 years.
@9HM98WN1yr1Y
I believe that mental health research unless clinically diagnosed with mental illness is a problem that is too heavily fixated on.
@9HHTQD61yr1Y
No, the government should enact systems that don't drive people crazy. Look at the political "show" in Ottawa. Those are meant to be adults leading our country. They act like angry children. That's crazy.
@9HCP7QV1yr1Y
No. Healthcare is under Provincial jurisdiction. The federal govt should not be involved at all. Cut the taxes, close the ministry, get the feds out of the province’s business entirely.
