Mr. Speaker, I would like to remind the Members of the House that the facilities are not the only option. There are community options available whether it is community on-the-land options or whether it is community counsellors or whether it is programs like the Matrix programs. However, facilities are the appropriate venue on some occasions.
When an individual needs a facility-based option, the counsellors will often work with them to explain all of the options and the pros and cons of the different facilities based on the needs of that individual. They will also look at availability. Is there room in that facility today? Is there not room in that facility today? Is there something within two weeks? Is there something within one week? They work together based on the needs, what is available in the different facilities. It is based on discussion and what the individual is comfortable with and what is appropriate at any given time.
