It reminds us of the importance of positive mental health and its role in helping each of us to live longer healthier lives. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2984940\" data-originallang=\"en\">Our government understands the importance of mental health for Canadians and their families. That is why today the <a data-HoCid=\"128707\" href=\"/politicians/leona-aglukkaq/\" title=\"Leona Aglukkaq\">Minister of Health</a> announced important new mental health research projects. The private sector will be matching federal funds, doubling the impact this investment can have.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2984941\" data-originallang=\"en\">Every budget we have tabled since we formed government has invested significantly in mental health research and promotion. We established the Mental Health Commission of Canada. The commission recently released a strategy that is a resource for all levels of government, industry and the volunteer sector on how we can improve mental health in our country. We have invested more than $319 million in mental health research since 2006. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2984942\" data-originallang=\"en\">Through research, we are addressing the inequities in aboriginal health and developing a national network of patient-focused depression research and intervention centres.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2984943\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mental Illness Awareness Week presents an opportunity to consider how each of us can promote positive mental health in our daily lives and support those who are affected by mental illness.</p>",
