As paramedics, we see the impact of mental health challenges every day. Reducing stigma and increasing access to support helps people before a crisis happens. #BellLetsTalk

Severe weather across parts of the region is delaying paramedic response. Crews are prioritizing life-threatening emergencies, so lower-priority calls may take longer. Some areas not directly impacted may also see delays as resources are redirected. Thank you for your patience.
