Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Minister Ambrose and all your officials, for being here. Apparently I do mean “all your officials”. That's quite a crowd.
Everybody here has been touched by mental health in one way or another, whether it's depression or Alzheimer's. I lost an aunt to Alzheimer's, and I know other people who have been touched by it. With one in five Canadians suffering some form of mental health.... Obviously, it has serious effects on all of our lives, whether it's us personally or people we know and love. There has been some good work going on by our government to support mental health research, and funding through your portfolio, and these dollars have gone a long way toward developing resources needed to tackle those issues.
Can you talk about some of those mental health research programs that we've undertaken and some we might be planning in the future?
