Mr. Speaker, our government understands the urgency of the situation and is moving forward with an evidence-based approach to ending this crisis.
Overcoming the stigma associated with substance use is also essential in addressing this whole-of-society problem. It is vitally important to our work to turn the tide on this crisis. This includes investing over $30 million to help change attitudes and perceptions about people who use drugs and an additional $25-million commitment in our most recent platform to reduce the stigma.
Our government is working with the provinces and territories and with communities to develop a comprehensive health-based strategy to address this tragedy. This includes $500 million to support our partners in providing a range of treatment options.
We will continue doing—
