Graff, who is also Alberta’s child and youth advocate, said suicide is the second most common cause of death for young people and the rates are highest among Indigenous children and youth. However, Canada is the only G7 country without a national plan. “Until Canada takes concrete action on the moral and economic imperative of investing in children through a national suicide strategy, our children will continue to die while waiting,” the report says.It is difficult to understand just how many children and youth are affected across the country, the report says, because of under-reporting and inconsistencies in how different areas collect information. Between 2013 and 2017, at least 1,174 youth between eight and 19 years old killed themselves.
Lisa Broda, Saskatchewan’s deputy children’s advocate, said that in her province Indigenous girls were 29 times more likely to commit suicide than their non-Indigenous counterparts and Indigenous boys were six times more likely.
Strategy should include ending pollution, cleaning up.lead in the soils & water pipes, and fully teaching kids about proper nutrition. Nobody eating pop, chips, pizza, burgers, deep fried anything, while being exposed to tainted air, water, and soil can have good health.
One would like to agree, that this one area, now or before that any government has not shrieked from its responsibility that does not entirely lie in its own control. Invariably, it is the society missing here.

Toronto homeowner who has child with nut allergy loses fight to remove walnut tree from backyardA homeowner who has an adult child with a nut allergy has had an application to remove a large walnut tree from the property’s backyard denied by the City of Toronto. Loses fight. 😂 clown world. Just cut ‘er down and go to court. We have a few black walnut trees beyond our fence.. My only complaint is that squirrels drop the occasional one in the pool, which is annoying.. Other than that they are beautiful trees.. It's not as if an adult is going to eat their way through the nuts. That’s terrible!
