      I’ll have much more to say in the next few days about our current elected officials and the media. This has gone past ok. There is a lot more than a mental health crisis going on.

      Hey it’s a team. We support you and many have. Time for teamwork. We must all be standing up side by side because it’s about to go down. Mental health and suicide is 5 times higher right now. I am not an expert

      Perhaps you should take a few minutes and educate yourself, because you're saying things that aren't true. You're not an expert. "In British Columbia, equivalent numbers seem to be slightly down on last year."

      I am not an expert in any of this. My message came from friends who work as paramedics and frontline workers and find the bodies. Not up for a battle discussion. Have a good Christmas.

      I wrote about this in a bit of detail. It is important to distinguish the overall mental health concerns and suicide rates, because they are related but not perfectly correlatedhttps://gidmk.medium.com/have-lockdowns-caused-suicides-during-covid-19-dd6b7a741f39 …

          Thank you. @LWLOttawa unfortunately isn't interested in experts - or rather, experts that don't side with her narrative. I have experienced this with her on other platforms and it's sad because she claims to be open minded but isn't. At all.
