The Canadian Alliance on Mental Illness and Mental Health (CAMIMH) issued a press release calling on all Canadians to sign a Parity Pledge which will be sent to your Member of Parliament – which calls on the federal government to pass legislation (a Mental Health and Substance Use Health Care For All Parity Act) which will provide funding to expand access to accessible and inclusive publicly-funded mental health and substance use health care programs and services that are evidence-based. See the news conference . Please consider signing the Pledge and/or forwarding it to your colleagues, friends and family.
