Human Resources committee  Bipolar?

Human Resources committee  My response to that is something that the Mental Health Commission of Canada just told us. What they're telling employers now is, pay now or pay later. You have to have people with disabilities in the workplace. By 2030, mental health issues will be the leading cause of disability in Canada.

Human Resources committee  I'll try to make it quick. For our population dealing with mental health issues, it's more difficult to get into the workplace or get back into the workplace after an illness because of the stigma attached. As soon as they hear that somebody's had mental health difficulties, they may go to the media and what the media says about violence, and that sort of thing.

Human Resources committee  I would reiterate what Diane just said. That is part of our organization. We're trying to reignite our grassroots and develop the membership again so that we can get the interconnection with communities going to the national level. Then the national level comes to you. But we're speaking with one voice because we're all consumers.
