Mr. Speaker, we do not have the supports we need for people with mental health challenges. The member mentioned ethnicities. I am indigenous. I am Métis. I know that a lot of indigenous, first nations and Métis groups are very concerned, because the number of suicide attempts among adults is at least double the rate in the rest of Canada's population. Among youth, it is six times higher. It is a very vulnerable population, and this is a concern, especially for indigenous Canadians.
