Thank you, Madam Chair.
In reality, people who don't have the benefit of access to sports, sports clubs or mental health resources are much more affected. That's the reality and that's why we're trying to educate our coaches so that they have a greater understanding and knowledge of mental health issues to begin their reflection and to intervene with athletes and participants across the country.
For me, the priority is for the federal government, in partnership with the provinces and territories, to continue to discuss this topic across the country. We have the Red Deer declaration, which we could build on to continue this work in close collaboration with the entire sport system across the country. It's also a matter of having an honest discussion to identify gaps and problems.
Another aspect of the problem is that sport is becoming more expensive.
