See -- Socialized Suicide Prevention Doesn't Work

A Canadian province is ending its 24/7 suicide hotline. It will now only operate during business hours.

Prince Edward Island, a small province on Canada's East Coast, says it is too expensive to operate the hotline around the clock. Starting June 1, it will be open only between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

The plan drew protest from mental health groups across the country Wednesday.
"How many times, when you get upset or worried or concerned about things, is it in the middle of the day? It's usually at 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning when you wake
up," said Joan Wright, executive director of the Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention based in Edmonton, Alberta.

"One of the things I was hearing is the government felt there weren't enough suicide-related calls," Wright said.

What kinds of calls does a suicide hot line get other than suicide-related?

Well, you should of already known that socialized medicine resulted in waiting for vital treatment. Now, you know.
