Just sitting here, we're talking about food security. A lot of times it might not seem like a lot, but that extra $15, $20 or $30 that GST puts on services might actually lead to somebody making a decision to deprioritize their mental health so they can feed their family. For a lot of people, even if you have third party coverage, ordinarily you have to pay up front and then be reimbursed by whatever your service is. This removes that huge number up front which, for a lot of people, is a huge barrier.
Mental health usually suffers because other things are of priority for most Canadians, so it is very exciting for us to remove that so that just going to seek services for physical and mental health—anything—is equal right across.
