It's actually quite astute of you to highlight that. Yes, we went back and forth trying to come up with the right terminology, and in my speech, I did intentionally switch back and forth between “mental illnesses” and “mental health issues”. Again, this is a discussion that I'm sure the committee will have, and you're going to hear from other experts. I'm hoping that you'll also hear from the department in relation to the right terminology.
The intent of the bill is not to play with the terminology. At the end of the day, I'll be very happy whether you use “mental health illness”, “mental health issues”, or “mental health challenges”, so long as we provide an opportunity for the individual to really get the programs and services they need to help them reintegrate and recover much faster—that is, as long as that accommodation is made. That's really the purpose.
