From my perspective, with what seems to be an ever-increasing
growth of those dealing with some form of psychological ailment, noteworthy progressive
change has been far from apparent.

Mental Health Care Insufficient
In an August 2002 Royal Bank of Canada Letter, Robert
Stewart wrote in part “It has often been said that the true test of a civilized
society lies in how it treats its weakest members. When it comes to the
mentally ill, Canada has not done well by this test. We have shunned and
ridiculed a class of people who are in no way responsible for their misfortune.
We have treated them unequally, compared to sufferers from physical ills, in
the spending of public money on the care and treatment of their plight.”
