Thank you very much to the witnesses for being here today. I think we could probably spend a lot more time on getting your input, and maybe that's something we can look at.
I want to ask for a couple of specifics. We're all looking for solutions. You may know Alvin Fiddler, who a few years ago was the deputy grand chief of the Nishnawbe Aski Nation. With Deb Matthews, the minister in Ontario, he was pushing to make the entire class of opioids tamper-resistant, because one of the things that was problematic, I guess in first nations.... Ms. Matthews even said that in one community in northern Ontario 85% of the community was addicted to opioids.
Dr. Chase, you were saying that they get generic OxyContin, they crush it, they snort it, they inject it, and it's very problematic. I am wondering whether you still support the idea of making that entire class of drugs tamper-resistant.
Also, how much money is allocated to mental health and addiction in first nations, and what services are offered with that money? I wondering whether you could answer that.
