Definition: This block contains a wide variety of disorders that differ in severity and clinical form but that are all attributable to the use of one or more psychoactive substances, which may or may not have been medically prescribed.

Canada lacks national leadership in mental health, mental illness and addiction, a serious deficiency that, in the view of many, has left a very large void: there is no focus on mental illness and addiction within national and provincial/territorial health care reform initiatives; there is no clear delineation of the roles and responsibilities of the various stakeholders; troublesome inequities are the result of different provinces and territories being at various stages in the reform of their mental health care and addiction treatm ...[+++]ent systems.
