That's a fantastic question. Since the start of the pandemic, the Canadian Cancer Society has done our very best to conduct patient and caregiver surveys and share these results with government to really demonstrate the increased levels of anxiety and stress that we see with people living with cancer, especially those little ones.
For example, at the start of the pandemic—and I would say that the shift has happened over the past couple of years—caregivers were not able to attend appointments with their children, so that would absolutely cause increased levels of anxiety and stress for all different family members.
Something that I would also add is around grief and bereavement and not necessarily having the access to those types of supports in a comprehensive manner, just because the system was rather inundated with additional mental health requests at that time.
We also know that the psychosocial impacts and requests that come from the cancer community have always been a concern. For example, the Canadian Partnership Against Cancer released a report a couple of years ago, and one of the top recommendations that came from this report was the need for long-term psychosocial support for the cancer community. As Kelly mentioned as part of our witness testimony, the Canadian Cancer Society is proud to provide information and support services to people living with cancer, and their loved ones, in over 200 different types of languages.
Kelly, is there anything you want to add?
