Deputy PM Freeland makes mental health announcement ahead of Canadian federal budget | LIVE

Canada's Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland is set to make an announcement on Tuesday in Ottawa about federal mental health supports ahead of the government's budget tabling on April 16.

She will be joined by the Minister of Mental Health and Addictions and Associate Minister of Health Ya’ara Saks, Minister of Health Mark Holland and Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth Marci Ien.

This comes as an Ipsos poll revealed Canadians are mostly looking for help paying their bills in the 2024 federal budget, not investments in the military or clean energy transitions. The poll conducted exclusively for Global News surveyed 1,000 Canadians between March 15 and 18 about what their top three priorities were for the upcoming federal budget.
