Finance committee  It is quite significant, to sum it up in a sentence. I work on the front line, in the trenches. I am in constant touch with my colleagues in New Brunswick—that's where I come from—and this has become a major cause for concern. We have to understand that at a psychiatry practice, our motto is centred around patient care.

Finance committee  Thank you, Mr. Chairman and honourable members, and good afternoon. The Canadian Psychiatric Association is very pleased to be with you this afternoon. My name is Dr. Nachiketa Sinha, and I am the CPA president. I am joined at the table by Mr. Glenn Brimacombe, CEO of the CPA.
