Thank you, Minister.
Your government has commendably made a substantial increase in funding to the Global Fund to address HIV and AIDS on the international stage. Unfortunately, your government has recently denied or cut funding to many HIV support organizations that provide services here in Canada, including some that are key players in responding to the opioid overdose crisis.
Will you commit to reversing these cuts and ensure that every group that has historically received funding under the community action fund gets that funding? A short answer would be appreciated.
