Real Change: A New Plan For a Strong Middle Class (page 9)
“That’s why Budget 2017 proposes to invest $6 billion over 10 years for home care, and $5 billion over 10 years to support mental health initiatives. These targeted investments have the potential to make a real difference in the lives of all Canadians. Through this funding, Canadians can expect improved access to home, community and palliative care services; more support for informal caregivers; and better access to mental health support for as many as 500,000 young Canadians under the age of 25 who cannot currently receive even basic mental health services.”
“Budget 2017 will simplify and improve existing tax measures for caregivers, persons with disabilities and students.”
