#Budget2024 is bringing a once-in-a-generation investment in youth mental health, at a time when young people need it most.   The $500M Youth Mental Health Fund will fill gaps in our mental health support system to ensure young Canadians get help they need, in their communities.

Action Canada stands with our colleagues in the U.S. who are facing the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. This ruling is an attack on human rights and will have devastating and inequitable repercussions that ripple beyond the American border.

#NASW condemns today’s #SCOTUS decision to overturn #RoeVWade. This decision is an unconscionable rollback of fundamental rights for all people in the US. We'll continue advocating on local, state & federal levels to ensure reproductive rights. More: bit.ly/3OFVCTG

CPHA supports #BillC216 - we need to move away from the criminalization of substance use and towards a public health approach. Help this Bill move to the committee stage by contacting your MP here: ow.ly/m2Sg50Jl8Si

Pleased to see my article requesting MPs send @GordJohns Bill C-216 to committee in the @TheHillTimes. Getting this to committee will allow an urgent conversation about the toxic drug crisis and may help chart a course forward! #cndpoli @momsstoptheharm hilltimes.com/2022/05/25/lib…

The gov't knows the war on drugs is harming people who already face structural inequities. Yet it has refused to take the actions experts have told them will #StopTheHarm. Last week in QP, I asked when the gov't will start addressing the root causes of substance use #BillC216
