THUNDER BAY — Numerous topics were brought forward to provincial ministers by local officials at this year’s Rural Ontario Municipal Association Conference, with the need for a mental health and addiction crisis centre taking centre stage.
The Thunder Bay delegation recently returned from the 2023 ROMA Conference that was held in Toronto this week. Prior to the conference, meetings were requested with ministers regarding guns and gangs but it is at the discretion of the ministry if a meeting can be arranged. Oliver met with Michael Tibollo, the province's associate minister of mental health and addictions, and the Ministry of Health.
“As more communities are trying to divvy up that pie, the pieces get smaller and smaller,” she said. “The minister expressed some concern that he does not have capital dollars and part of our ask was $34 million to get a crisis centre built in Thunder Bay.”
