There needs to be more mental health care professionals as so many people are falling through the cracks and not getting help
@9FGPSTV2yrs2Y
We need the mentally ill medicated and not wandering the streets homeless.
@9HM98WN1yr1Y
I believe that mental health research unless clinically diagnosed with mental illness is a problem that is too heavily fixated on.
@9HHTQD6Conservative1yr1Y
No, the government should enact systems that don't drive people crazy. Look at the political "show" in Ottawa. Those are meant to be adults leading our country. They act like angry children. That's crazy.
@9GXZCH41yr1Y
No, increase funding into subsidizing healthy foods, and increase funding to physical education, sleep, and life practices.
@9G6LS2N1yr1Y
Bring back the Mental Hospitals. now all of us Guinee pigs are loose in the public. and only increase funding for personalized care instead of subsidizing pharmaceutical companies
@9F5FC8S 2yrs2Y
Increase both public funding and incentivize private companies to address the issue. After we drastically improve our public system then a reassessment can be done to determine an appropriate amount of funding going forward.
@B2H2BPL3mos3MO
Yes! Increase the money that makes it to the patient and their direct care. Increase the money that makes it to productive researchers. Whether through additional budget, the cutting of bloat or a mix of both.
@9C2536N2yrs2Y
Yes because it's fair that everyone can get treated for mental health if they need it.
@96R332N2yrs2Y
Maintain funding but surge funding if there is a large population of depressed Canadians.
@95PB8LK3yrs3Y
I think its fine how it is
@95LSVQV3yrs3Y
Yes, but we can't afford this right now
@9565N8K3yrs3Y
@8Y52KR83yrs3Y
Yes, but it's more important to address the root cause of the mental health issues (e.g. poverty, COVID)
@8XJ8R6V3yrs3Y
Yes, our government causes it with tax burden, lacklustre drug enforcement and a safe haven to practice
@8VSFJZ24yrs4Y
People should be taught emotional intelligence in school!!
@8V8GV2L4yrs4Y
No, companies abuse and take advantage of people with mental health issues.
@8TJ222S4yrs4Y
yes, it would bring more awareness to the importance and extremity of mental health
Yes, our healthcare system needs more funding to provide a higher quality of care and services, but focus the majority of funding towards personalized care rather than pharmaceutical companies
@8SM79NB4yrs4Y
There should not be any funding for research.
@8S94ZNV4yrs4Y
More research needs to be funded for mental health, with less emphasis on pharmaceutical promotion
@8RK5FXD4yrs4Y
Yes, and bring back secure institutions.
@8PWLS2W4yrs4Y
Mental health is just as important as physical health
@8PQL4GY4yrs4Y
Yes they should. Therapy is too expensive for those who truly need it most. With increased funding, practitioners can charge their patients less so that they can get the help they deserve.
@8PGS37Q4yrs4Y
Yes, for more research on treatments
@8PF4DQ54yrs4Y
@8PDCTZR4yrs4Y
Yes and there should be more financial resources diverted to housing. Less money should be spent on police services and prisons.
@8PCJB6T4yrs4Y
i have mixed feelings about this topic.
@8P5LGN64yrs4Y
Yes, increase it progressively.
@8P3F3JT4yrs4Y
The government needs to undo the damage done with the fluoride and the mercury and the vaccines. But must first stop perpetrating these crimes against the population.
Mercury dental amalgums , and water fluoridation must be strictly outlawed . Fluoride toothpaste and other fluoride containing products must be made illegal , and fluoride must no longer be used in the production of pharmaceutical medications.
@8NWWPXS4yrs4Y
Allocate the current funds better
@8NT8LSD4yrs4Y
@8JN7VDX4yrs4Y
I think is good where it is now
@8J3S8YL4yrs4Y
Yes the government can do this but I think private companies should be able to do this as well if they wish.
Yes if you help the sick some might get off odsp/ow and work also more family supports we need a system that strengthen our youth so they grow up healthy and capable of working
@8GMQK4N5yrs5Y
i am satisfied with the current funding
@8CX4TNN5yrs5Y
Yes, as long as this can be afforded without much issue. If there is issue, I guess as long as this issue (these issues) can be worked around or handled, then my answer would still be yes.
@8CKDFKQ5yrs5Y
No, Corona virus is a bigger problem right now
@9C4FR4H2yrs2Y
It depends on the disorder
@9BY6JVR2yrs2Y
No, just man up and deal with it, go to the gym or take meds.
@995WHT52yrs2Y
Yes, but try to get people with mental health issues to fix their physical health as mental health and physical health are very well connected
@98HHR5F2yrs2Y
Keep it where it's at b r o t h e r .
@97T4JZCConservative2yrs2Y
yes, if we can afford it, and incentivize private companies to address the issue and lower cost
@96Q96XY2yrs2Y
A lot of the funding is going to scams and nothing happens
@92JJNYM3yrs3Y
Yes, and expand funding to provide services from a wider range of providers including non-clinical programs (coaches, workshops, etc) that meet a set standard.
@8Z2NZQG3yrs3Y
Yes, and make it free and universal.
@8W62PFB4yrs4Y
@8PPT63T4yrs4Y
No, instead eliminate the reasons behind bad mental health, such as poverty
@B4KJRNP3 days3D
No because the government ignores results that they don't like or don't fit the current liberal narrative
@8DZWW625yrs5Y
Yes, to decrease research to prevent suicide from over research.
