“The suicide rate in Alberta has increased dramatically in the wake of mounting job losses across the province. The most recent data only goes to June, but according to the chief medical examiner’s office, 30 per cent more Albertans took their lives in the first half of this year compared to the same period last year. ‘This is staggering,’ said Mara Grunau, who heads the Centre for Suicide Prevention. ‘It’s far more, far exceeds anything we would ever have expected, and we would never have expected to see this much this soon.'”
