Mr. Speaker, today we are in mourning and we offer our sincere condolences to the community of La Loche.
We must do more, though. Too many young people in our northern communities are growing up without hope, and they need support. The Conservatives blithely made cuts to health care services. Now, Health Canada is regularly turning down requests for mental health services for first nations, even though these services are available to other Canadians.
Will the minister put an end to this discrimination and finally help those who need these services?
