The federal government will spend 69 million dollars over three years on indigenous mental health services, after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with a delegation of more than 20 aboriginal youth from northern Ontario. The plan includes four crisis response teams in Ontario, Manitoba and Nunavut and 32 mental wellness teams as part of ongoing talks on a new health accord. The youth emphasized the need for inclusive dialogue and better access to care.
