Absolutely. I am a registered nurse myself, as well as a student returning back to post-secondary, so I've seen the impact this can have first-hand.
Speaking specifically within the post-secondary realm, currently we're asking the federal government for help because, across the country, access to such support is not equitable and we think this is a shared responsibility. While some provinces might be able to better offer support, others aren't. Just as students, for example, are able to access financial aid in terms of grants for physical disabilities, and any sort of assessments associated with that, or aids associated with that, we want to make sure that mental health is prioritized just as much as physical health.
We've seen incredible success in terms of students accessing those granting programs through the Canada student grants program, and we would like to see that expanded to include mental health as well.
