OSIC is going to have some mental health support and some trauma support for athletes, but obviously not everybody wants to go to seek them, and not everybody should. Some people just want the support they need at the moment they need it, and that's why the minister announced, just before Christmas, $2.4 million in mental health support. That's going to be provided to any athlete who feels they need it—not to improve in their competition or their sport, but just to improve their well-being. It's not for a person's better performance; it's focused on the wellness of athletes.
