Minister, thank you very much for your time this morning.
When these types of bills are presented, we often wonder whether there are sufficient financial and human resources to implement these good intentions. By “good intentions” I of course mean rehabilitation—which is very important to us—and ensuring that people undergo testing.
I want to stress the importance of a proper diagnosis. In fact, a number of substance abuse problems stem from mental illness. So a proper diagnosis must be made, followed by the appropriate treatment. How can we be sure that you will have the required financial and human resources, and that Correctional Service Canada will have access to them?
