It's obviously a critical element of stabilizing homeless people in housing. Certainly, mental health issues and addiction rates are much higher among people who are suffering from homelessness, so there's a combined effort there with our provinces and territories in providing the health services, the mental health support and the addiction treatment, that are needed. Across the board, we need more support on drug treatment for addictions. We certainly see that as a complicating factor in helping people who are struggling with homelessness.
I think we need a holistic approach here that integrates the health supports very directly into the housing that's needed.
