Hello Everyone. The link I will post is to a Toronto Star storey about suicide in Ontario's North. It is a tough storey to believe and a tougher one to read.
I have lived not quit that far north, but north and I have visited Moosonee. I understand the problems. However my main reason for posting the link is to demonstrate what can happen when the Gov't starts to run out of money and starts to cut services. It could happen here.
Not many people live in this area. In Moosonee and Moose factory there is about 4000 people and I am unsure how many in more remote reserves.
I understand that discussions involving suicide upsets some people, so it might be best to use your own judgement whether or not to read this article. If nothing else this story slams home some very unpleasant facts about mental health or lack thereof. Take Care. paul m http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/a...attention?bn=1
