Thank you very much, Adam.
As you know, I certainly want to say openly that it's good fortune that I and many others have you to work with as parliamentary secretary, connecting your roles as parliamentary secretary of sport and health to sports—not health care, because you're making a big difference between health and health care. The two are obviously connected, but there is no minister in Canada who is a minister of health care. There are 14 different ministers of health, not of health care.
That's because, as you mentioned, prevention, among many other things, is key to well-being in health in Canada and elsewhere. I may open a brief parenthesis: Experts estimate that about 80% of health outcomes have nothing to do with health care. They have everything to do with physical activity, healthy eating, having friends, being connected to the community, sleeping well, avoiding abuses, smoking as little as possible, and just being engaged physically and emotionally. From a community perspective, that's what drives most health outcomes.
As you said, that is particularly true for children, as you well know as parliamentary secretary to sports and having been such a leader and a driver of good health, physical and other habits.
The $20 million in annual support to community-based initiatives is to improve health behaviour, including physical activity for populations at greater risk, including children in marginalized communities and children in indigenous communities. We know that it is even more important to focus on prevention, including physical activities.
Thank you for your leadership, and thank you for pointing that out.
