INTERESTING EMAIL FROM ONTARIO!!!!!

I have sent Bernard Richard information straight out of the CPS on Ritalin and the side effects.

I am sure you have read this and it is the best attack you can have as all
the side effects are listed in the CPS. It is strange though somewhere
along the line suicide was taken out.


It was in the list of side effects up to 1993 I beleive, now it is gone. We know that children do get depressed taking this drug which either leads to another drug being prescribed like Prozac, or the child commits suicide either because Prozac lets say is prescribed and is known to cause suicide or the combination of both drugs.

But our laws here in Canada protect "the dead" meaning we can't find out if the child was on any type of drug before killing themselves or others.

This Charles would be a good place to open up a very secretative spot. Parents aren't even told if they find out their child (child could be any age as we all are
children of someone) if drugs were involved - prescription - who is being protected
here?

Do you know anything about this? As we have found out a child of 9 in Manitoba hung himself after coming back from a foster home to his home.

It is assumed he was on a behaviour drug but I can't find out for sure. In Calgary two young people who were known to be on prescription drugs and yet neither parent can find out the "why" that caused their children to commit suicide.

One parent was told that her son of 17 they found he did have a prescription drug in his system but that was it. She knew he was depressed but thought the prescription drug would help.

Help what?

We can't find out, was he on Ritalin, then given another drug to counteract the Ritalin or was he given something like Zoloft or Prozac? Our country's children are
Canada's life, if we allow these children to be drugged can you imagine
what is going to happen in 20 years? It is not fair to these children they
are the victims here.

I understand you don't have a lot of money, but one doesn't need a lot of money, as it is well known good actions counter act the bad ones.

In another way "the pen is mightier than the sword" you are doing great work
Charles and I am so pleased we are working towards the same out come, bring
governments to the understanding drugging kids is not the answer...hello...Canada! Wake up!!!!

There are many cases where incidences of suicide took place because of these drugs. Issue is being pushed under the rug because governments refuse to do any thing about it. doctors do not want to say very much as they may lose their practice.

Bernard Lord probably will tell you that suicide rates are much lower in N.B compared to other provinces therefore nothing to worry. There is no will to do anything by governmetn. Parents got to speak up. Charles is doing a good job.

"A fee is not a tax,” A story in Gleaner.

So many ways to screw the public and Lord government is becoming an expert. Yet it continues to kiss the ass of the rich by forgiving property tax of $5 million a year for 25 years. Good deal, eh!

Gleaner story:

Farmers hit with 5,000% fee increase
Province jacks cost for five-year compost licences from $50 to $2,500

New Brunswick Agriculture Minister David Alward told reporters he isn't embarrassed to be giving the Irvings a big property tax break while jacking up fees for farmers.

"A fee is not a tax," he said during question period.
