Dr. Wieman, I really appreciate your being here and joining us remotely today.
From your perspective, is the federal government doing enough to address the intergenerational trauma arising from colonialism and residential schools?
Do you believe first nations are getting enough resources from the federal government to meet the demand for culturally safe mental health and substance use care?
I think you know that a mental health emergency has been declared by the Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council in my riding.
Can you also speak about the barriers to accessing federal funding, including the SUAP applications, which have been rejected across British Columbia?
