Replying to Rosemarie Falk (Conservative)

“Mr. Speaker, a recent government decision under the non-insured health benefits program is limiting access to mental health services in Lloydminster, Canada’s only border city. Councillors have been told they can no longer serve indigenous patients because of where their clinic is located in the city and their provincial registration. For patients, many of whom are residential and day school survivors, losing an established therapeutic relationship is deeply disruptive. Will the minister cut this red tape to ensure that indigenous patients can continue to access the care they need in the city where they live?”

Mr. Speaker, this critical service is available, but we want to be sure that service providers are able to respond to clients’ needs, whether they are living in a city or providing a service from another province. We want to be sure that they are able to provide the best and most adequate service to the clients who are going to them and that they are able to be served in the spaces they live in. If my colleague wants to work together, I am more than willing to give her the answers she needs for her riding.
