3 CAMPAIGN 2015 PHOTOS: Martin C. Barry Newsfirst Hundreds cheer Mulcair at Outremont campaign launch NDP leader pledges to bring in 10,000 Syrian refugees M a r t i n C. B a r ry During a launch last week for NDP leader Tom Mulcair s campaign to retain his seat in Outremont as MP, he called on the Conservative government to do its part to help relieve the humanitarian crisis in which tens of thousands of refugees who are fleeing the Middle East are living in hardship while trying to enter Europe. Urges action Addressing more than 500 supporters at the Rialto Theatre on Parc Ave., Mulcair called on Ottawa to take in 10,000 Syrian refugees from now to the end of In the meantime, however, the Conservative government s response has been to deal with the crisis as though it were no different from any other situation involving refugees. Because we can do more we must do more and we will do more, said Mulcair, noting that an NDP government would appoint a coordinator for Syrian refugees who would work closely with countries which have already agreed to accept Syrian refugees. Moved by tragedy Images define an era, added Mulcair, who said he was moved by an image that went viral during the previous 24 hours, showing a small boy who had drowned in the waters off Turkey. Mulcair said that under the NDP, there would be no cap to bring as many people as possible to Canada among other measures. We have to work across political lines with the government today, right now, so that action can be taken as quickly as possible to assist in the current crisis. He said that generally speaking under the current government, we cannot be proud of Canada s contribution on the international scene. Regarding the Conservatives management of Canada s employment insurance system, Mulcair said they ransacked EI while rendering fragile the lives of tens of thousands of families as well as entire sectors of the Quebec economy. Mulcair maintained there are 200,000 more unemployed Canadians today than there were before 2008 when the last major recession hit the country. Says Harper failed miserably And it isn t for nothing that I am talking about the last recession in 2008, he continued. Because he is the only prime minister of the modern era who when he is asked questions about the recession during his mandate, he has to ask which one. He accused Harper of failing the middle class miserably, while neglecting the infrastructure of cities and losing all incredibly across the country in environmental matters. Because we can do more we must do more and we will do more, he says Mulcair recalled that in 2007 when he ran for the NDP for the first time, most people found it hard to imagine the party winning a stronghold Liberal riding like Outremont. Four years later, the wave of orange would sweep almost the whole province. In 2011, Quebecers from all walks of life from every region of the province francophone, anglophone, allophone turned the page and voted for change and it started right here, he said, recalling that the Rialto has become a traditional staging place for NDP victories. Sees change across the country Mulcair alluded to the Alberta NDP party s recent victory. The message for change is resonating in huge rallies in every corner of the country. And let me tell you that as thrilled as I am to be in a big city like Toronto or Winnipeg or Vancouver and have a thousand people in a room, in the last couple of days we ve had 1,000-person rallies in places like Penticton and Kamloops. We can feel that change is on its way. But it s going to take a lot of hard work to get us there. So it s time to do what we ve always done with Jack [Layton]. Remember him always rolling up his sleeves? That s what we have to do. We ve got to roll up our sleeves and take our message to every corner of Quebec and right across the country. By working together we will complete what was started by Jack and replace Stephen Harper and build the Canada of our dreams. Mulcair and his wife Catherine acknowledge cheers from hundreds of supporters during his Outremont campaign launch. Mulcair touches base with young supporters during his Outremont campaign launch.

4 Opinion & Editorial Parlez-moi D HUMOUR Alcide Borik C est enfin le retour en classe! Vous devez vous demander de quelle classe il s agit puisque je viens de fêter mon 75ième anniversaire. Je m explique : Durant les saisons d automne, d hiver et de printemps, une jeune et jolie instructrice du YMCA vient dans notre immeuble pour encourager les croulants que nous sommes à faire de petits exercices de mise en forme, empêcher, en quelque sorte, nos vieux muscles rouillés de tomber en panne. Le tout se déroule dans la bonne humeur et permet aux plus timides des locataires de raconter leur vie aux autres. Bon! En été, notre instructrice prend des vacances, alors j ai voulu prendre de l avance en m inscrivant dans un gymnase. J ai donc fait mes réservations auprès de Samantha, une pulpeuse blonde de 26 ans instructrice anaérobique 101. Comme l enthousiasme est contagieux, ma fille qui veille si bien sur ma santé m a vivement encouragé dans ma décision, et a insisté pour que je tienne un journal de l aventure. LUNDI Ma journée débute à six heures du matin. Dur, dur, de sortir du lit, mais le souvenir de Samantha me... redresse. O! récompense, Samantha m attend sourire aux lèvres sur ses dents éclatantes et ses yeux étincelants. Mutine, elle me bécote les joues et m emmène visiter les différents appareils, puis m installe à faire des tractions. Ça fait une bonne soixantaine d années que j ai cessé d en faire et je ne me rappelais pas que c était si douloureux. Mais Samantha ne me quitte pas des yeux, ce qui déclenche sur ma face un sourire qui ressemble un peu à une grimace d hyène. Qu importe, je sens que ça va être une semaine fantastique! MARDI Après avoir vidé ma cafetière, j ai réussi à extirper du lit mon corps endolori et à me traîner vers la porte. À peine rendu, Samantha m a fait coucher sur le dos et m arque bouter sous des barres métalliques où elle accumule des poids. Mais quand je réussis à soulever tout ça, imaginez son sourire éclatant, je pouvais voir ses dents étinceler en mon honneur. Je ne sais pas si c est ma joie qui me faisait flageoler des jambes, mais je me sentais le roi du monde. Je commençais mon règne! MERCREDI La seule manière qui me reste pour me brosser les dents est désormais de presser le dentifrice sur une HALLELUYAH! débarbouillette et de la mâchouiller laborieusement. Je ne peux plus me pencher pour attacher mes lacets et mes genoux se verrouillent sans que je le leur demande. Tout mon corps est raqué. J arrive à conduire mais j aurais bien besoin de quelqu un pour tourner le volant ou peser sur les freins. Samantha perd un peu patience avec moi, car mes cris de douleur dérangent les autres participants, et sa voix est particulièrement pointue ce matin, surtout quand elle me gronde. Elle me fait emprunter les escaliers à toute vitesse. Quelle idée! Alors pourquoi avons nous inventé l ascenseur? Mon cœur bat la chamade même quand j arrête, et je ne sais pas ce qui me fait plus mal à la poitrine : Est-ce mes efforts ou ses engueulades? Pardon : elle appelle ça de la motivation. C était pas ça ma version de la motivation! JEUDI Samantha n était pas contente ce matin. Pendant qu elle me reprochait mon petit retard de quarante cinq minutes, il m a semblé que ses canines avaient poussé draculesquement. C était pourtant pas facile de lui dire que je n arrivais pas à tirer la porte du gymnase. Elle me prit par la main et m entraîna vers ses instruments de torture. À sa première distraction, j enfilai un couloir et me cachais dans les toilette d où il fallut deux autres salauds de moniteurs pour m extirper de force. Pour me punir, Samantha m installa sur l équipement de canotage et m engagea à ramer. Je pense que c est là que le sportif en moi a finit par se noyer. VENDREDI Je hais cette salope de Samantha avec ses exhortations nasillardes, plus que Caen n haït Abel, plus que Hitler n haït les Juifs, plus que ma copine n haït les oeufs miroirs glaireux, plus que les vierges au paradis d Allah n haïssent les hordes de terroristes venues les réclamer comme récompense. D ailleurs, je dois vous avouer qu on a découvert récemment qu une erreur s était glissée dans les écritures, et qu il s agissait, en fait, d une vierge... de 72 ans. D où le désintérêt soudain pour le sacrifice rituel. Ce soir, mes copains sont venus pour m emmener de force au restaurant en me soutenant sous les bras. S il y avait une seule partie de mon corps que je pouvais encore bouger sans une douleur insoutenable, je la battrais avec! Je hais cette stupide maigrichonne, platinée, anémique, anaérobique et anorexique, bique! Quant à ma fille chérie, j espère que l an prochain elle m offrira quelque chose de plus drôle, comme par exemple un traitement de canal ou une cystoscopie, et moi, je persiste à penser que si le bon Dieu voulait vraiment que je fasse des tractions, il aurait parsemé le sol de diamants bruts! Des Tutsis aux mi-grands Nos cœurs ont saigné la semaine dernière devant l image du cadavre innocent d un enfant Syrien victime d un naufrage de migrants sur les côtes de la Turquie, image qui semble avoir été savamment mise en scène par un photographe turc. Le revirement spontanné de l opinion mondiale en faveur des migrants a été si bien orchestrée que les grands cœurs du Québec et d ailleurs que l on a cru à la bonté et à la grandeur d âme des pays d accueil autant qu ils avaient cru dans les serments d amour des figurants de Jean Chrétien pour faire basculer le référendum. Que signifie vraiment cette crise des migrants? Avec le soi-disant «printemps arabe» initié en 2011, les chiffres de migrants n a pas cessé de se gonfler, dépassant les en Ces migrants ne constituent pas encore une menace de déstabilisation pour le demi milliard d Européens, puisque les pays arabes qui ne représentent que 3 à 400 millions en ont accueilli encore plus, mais le portrait de cette migration est-il aussi innocent qu il en a l air? Elle est constituée de deux tiers d hommes pour un tiers de femmes, Ces migrants sont pour plus de deux tiers principalement dans la vingtaine ou la jeune trentaine, et moins d un tiers d entre eux ne viennent pas des zones de guerre. (20% de Syriens, 7% d Afghans et 3% d Irakiens). Les deux tiers sont des migrants économiques qui veulent se diriger vers l Eldorado allemand où ils espèrent trouver une meilleure vie et une philosophie favorable à l antijudaisme prêché dans leurs pays d origines par la propagande palestinienne, et le réveil de l antisémitisme occidental. En fait, il y a donc peu de familles. On parle donc de près de 12% de migrants en Europe, chiffre qui, non seulement ne serait pas dangereux, mais qui aideraient certaines industries, surtout en Allemagne où les patrons ayant déjà avalé l immigration d Allemagne de l Est, veulent étendre leur empire sur la classe ouvrière sous le couvert d un accueil «charitable des pauvres migrants.» : Dès la fin de 2014, le grand patron du patronat allemand, Ulrich Grillo, déclarait «: «Nous sommes depuis longtemps un pays d immigration et nous devons le rester». «En tant que pays prospère et aussi par amour chrétien de son prochain, notre pays devrait se permettre d accueillir plus de réfugiés»... «En raison de notre évolution démographique, nous assurons de la croissance et de la prospérité avec l immigration» Souvenons-nous que dans les années 70, la France avait elle aussi poussé au «regroupement familial», sauf que cette migration qui rappelle, par son désordre et par ses nombreuses victimes appâtées par la prospérité de l Occident et devant l appât du gain assassin des passeurs, cette migration donc, rappelle celle des gnous et leur acharnement à traverser la Masai Mara puisque l herbe a l air plus verte sur l autre rive, abandonnant à leur sort quelques individus sacrifiés aux crocodiles qui patrouillent le cours d eau. Quand au regroupement familial, il parait secondaire aujourd hui aux apprentis sorciers de l économie, mais il pourrait, dans quelques années, constituer une bombe à retardement. ANGRY? ANNOYED?

6 Ottawa should restore health funding: user groups head But NDP says it can no longer reverse Conservative budget cuts Wants transfers restored M a r t i n C. B a r r y Since impossible is a word that doesn t exist in Pierre Blain s vocabulary, there s no reason, he says, why the leaders of Canada s most important political parties running in the upcoming election shouldn t be able to restore the billions of dollars in health care transfer payments cut by the Conservative government. Says commitment needed The RPCU thus supports the demands by the government of Quebec as regards federal financing for health, he said, adding that the RPCU is also demanding that the federal transfer payment be increased so as to represent at least 25 per cent of the provinces health care expenses while taking into account the reality of the aging demographics of the province. All the federal candidates in Quebec from all the parties must commit themselves in this way, because we are talking about the lives and dignity of their fellow citizens, continued Blain. They must stop In a statement issued last week on behalf of the Regroupement provincial des comités des usagers (RPCU), Blain, who heads the Montreal-based umbrella group, extended an invitation to all the political parties to commit themselves to improving federal support for health care. They must do more than just showing themselves open to discussion the parties must make commitments with strangling public finances60 of Quebec, numbers, he said.

8 FILIA Walk A Thon raises funds for seniors Walkers were able to stay cool in the drizzle M a r t i n C. B a r ry Rain or shine, the annual FILIA Walk A Thon must go on. And so it did last Saturday morning, although in a shortened sort of way due to rain. Instead of walking as far as Jarry Park, the participants took a route only a few blocks long before returning to FILIA on Ogilvy Ave. for a BBQ lunch. It was the first time in years that participants in the FILIA Walk A Thon found themselves being upstaged by mother nature. Each year, the Walk A Thon raises money for the many services and activities offered by FILIA. damp weather would be very comfortable for walking, in contrast to past years when exposure to intense sun required extra caution in order to make sure everyone was well hydrated. We ll walk a good four and a half blocks, she said. Symbolically it means a lot for us: it s raising funds, raising awareness for FILIA, and reminding seniors of the necessity to keep active. Nicholas Pagonis, president of the Hellenic Community of Greater Montreal, doubted the rain would dampen the spirit of those who turned out for the walk. Councillor Mary Deros and FILIA assistant director Sofia Markantonakis during the 2015 Walk A Thon. It was the first time in years that participants found themselves being upstaged by mother nature FILIA s services While FILIA s initial mission was to provide assistance for Greek women of the Park Extension Hellenic community, its mandate has since then broadened and people of every origin are welcome. Some of the services FILIA provides are home housekeeping and supervision, volunteer training and a healthcare clinic for the feet. Although Papineau MP Justin Trudeau and Laurier-Dorion MNA Gerry Sklavounos were unable to attend, Anthony Mavros, who is running for the Conservative Party in Laval s Vimy riding, was among those who participated. I think it s great what FILIA does here, he said in an interview with Nouvelles Parc Extension News. They re trying to raise funds to create a day centre for all FILIA s activities. We should all support this cause as much as we can. One cool walk Ever optimistic, Park Extension city councillor Mary Deros noted that the This is an excellent and a very good cause. First the golden agers have this chance to get together and show their solidarity. Pagonis said FILIA s meals on wheels program is an especially outstanding example of a FILIA service that will benefit from the Walk A Thon. Supporting FILIA People who for one reason or another cannot cook their own meals depend on this and it the least that can be offered. Pagonis also said he fully supports FILIA s current efforts to find a permanent locale it can truly call home. As things now stand, the group is headquartered in the City of Montreal s Ogilvy Ave. chalet which is also used by other groups. We owe it to the people who have reached a certain age, Pagonis continued. These are people who gave everything they had for their community, they raised children and contributed to society so now it s our turn to give back to them. Two of FILIA s volunteers prepared souvlaki for the Walk A Thon participants when they returned for lunch. Holding umbrellas, FILIA Walk A Thon participants make their way past the corner of Ogilvy and Stuart avenues in Park Extension. PHOTOS: Martin C.

10 the L.I.G.H.T.E.R side Aries March 21-April 19 Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22 Remember, start nothing new and significant before October 9. Protect ongoing projects, or reprise past ones. A Start nothing new before October 9 it would wither in future, or tangle you in vines of indecision and former love might return indications are that he/she is a good person. If you re both single, re-bonding could be delay. Protect ongoing projects from supply shortages, delays, indecision and misunderstandings. A former a good idea. (Use your own judgement, though it you fought constantly, for instance, or it was an abusive relationship, ignore teacher, lover, spouse, lawyer, school, or international contact/venture could re-appear. This is probably a good thing in my advice.) Romance continues to be a noticeable theme in your life, but by Thursday you start a seven-week swell in chores and fact, it could be you who does the re-appearing, you who seeks him/her/it out rather than the other way around. That s duties. At the same time, you start a four-week phase of serious relationships. Try not to let your work undermine your loved one s fine, too. Two thing happen this Thursday, though their effects might be subtle and take time to build. First, 5 months of comfort. Sunday s mellow, wise, love thrives so do travel, publishing, law, education. Be ambitious Mon./Tues. (But remember, money delays end, helping restore your income. Second, the weeks ahead, to mid-november, make marriage and partnerships restrictive and burdensome; you might now see the downside or bad side of a mate or potential mate avoid start nothing instead, be duteous, show off skills, meet with higher-ups you ll easily overcome any problems.) Happiness knocks Wed. to Fri. noon your popularity rises (mildly) and optimism, social joys, entertainment and friendly romantic flirtations flow in. arguments, physical fights during these weeks. You might remember that since February 2014 I ve been advising you not to marry before November 12, 2015 and to never marry anyone met during this period. Now, if you did couple, you will Taurus April 20-May 20 see what my warning was about. Significantly, the very day the south node (bad karma) leaves your relationship house Avoid all new, major starts, projects, relationships, before Oct. 9. (If any of these began before Sept. 17, they aren t (Nov. 12) Mars enters your sign, signalling the end of badness in marriage. Now to then, avoid dark alleys and biker clubs. new. ) Be alert for delays, missed meetings, mistakes with figures or phone numbers, supply shortages, etc. A former jib or duty might return it could be a blessing, especially if you re unemployed. But don t let a taker or parasite back into your life. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21 Thursday will start seven weeks of romantic fervor, courage, but not necessarily of good results look down the road, at least a year Avoid new projects and new relationships before October 9, Scorpio. Instead, protect ongoing projects down, before you let your desires over-rule your caution. (The danger: eventual boredom or imprisonment in a soft nest. There might from neglect, shortages, missed meetings and misunderstandings, and/or reprise projects from the past, be something destined about this e.g., that you might meet and go gaga over someone because you both have past life issues to especially in administrative, management, civil service, institutional, spiritual, warehouse and factory zones. You re tired, so confront again.) Sunday s for sexy intimacy or big finances both seem to flow easily to a successful end but if you notice undue rest, contemplate. A sexy person might re-appear from the past, but this person proved to be a burden then, and would delay (or have a blank feeling) back out. Predawn Mon. to midday Wed. (PDT) brings a mellow mood, wisdom, gentle love, and cultural, be again. You might re-connect with an advisor, agent, healer or psychic. You might feel you ve been personally held back far travel, legal, educational or publishing interests. These succeed Mon., hit barriers Tues. Still, friendship and domestic bliss sweeten since last April but the seven months ahead will bring more personal progress; you ll gain ground. The seven weeks ahead the interval. You might hear that your home is worth more. make your work place more entertaining; you ll feel optimistic about your employment future, and you might spark a coworker romance (not advised). Sunday s for buying/selling a good, pleasant during in which you might buy something Gemini May 21-June 20 you ll never need or use. Errands, calls, paperwork, short trips and casual friends fill Mon./Tues. Drive (and speak) cautiously Remember, start no new projects nor relationships before October 9. Instead, protect ongoing situations from Tues. daytime (PDT) tension can cause abrupt moments. delays, supply shortages, missed meeting, indecision, etc. Check all figures, on checks, envelopes, etc. A former love, or a former pleasure, hobby, creative or child-oriented situation might return. If love, chances are this is a deep love and Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21 a beneficial one. Make sure you are both free to leap in again; reject extra-marital shenanigans. In creative zones, don t try to Start nothing new before October 9, Sage. Instead, reprise former projects and protect ongoing ones from re-write a former opus put it on your desk, and tackle it again AFTER October 9. Sunday s for relationships, could spark love misunderstandings, delays, shortages and neglect. Your charisma and energy soar Sunday love could be great day to agree on something, or to explore new places. (But remember, don t start anything e.g., if you explore a new in the air, someone might approach you. Chase money, pay old bills and collect money owed you Mon./Tues. But don t neighbourhood, don t then buy a house there.) Investments, debt, large financial situations, lustful yearnings, diagnoses, life buy anything major (clothes, cars, computers, etc.) especially Tuesday, when lemons abound (particularly in electronics, computers, software). Stick to groceries. Errands, visits, trips, paperwork, communications, details, siblings and casual style changes, commitment and consequence, research and detective work Mon. to mid-morning Wed. Expect a minor glitch Tues. afternoon (PDT). It might be difficult to tell sexual yearning from romantic ardor the two might mingle so closely. Just friends fill Wed. to noon Fri. Generally, all goes smoothly, but prepare a list before you leave, or you ll have to leave twice. make sure neither party is married. Expect a subtle but deep disagreement over love and possessiveness, or a conflict between your social urges and your money wants. Head toward home Friday pm and Saturday. Embrace family, nature and get some rest. Sat. s fine, but Fri. Cancer June 21-July 22 daytime could bring rejection in romance or creative areas, or boredom with kids. Avoid all new, major starts before October 9 e.g., buy nothing bigger than groceries, don t start a new business or relationship, don t change residences, don t start renovations. (In that last, it can even be a good Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19 idea to let an ongoing reno project take a breather for 3 weeks, in case a carpenter builds the stairs backwards, etc.) A Avoid new starts, new projects and relationships before October 9. Instead, protect ongoing situations from prodigal child (or parent) might return for a visit, or you might discover that a rental or house purchase that you wanted delays, misunderstandings and other snafus. You can reprise the past, especially in work and career zones. A long ago, but missed, becomes available again good, grab it. Tackle chores Sunday all s well. (All week, keep an eye open former employer or job role might return, and it could be a good thing. Your dreams, your hopes and wishes, have been put for delays, missing supplies, wrong numbers, etc. Double-check things.) Relationships, fresh horizons (actually, old ones on hold since last April; now they will march forward for seven months. (However, you might be wise to gather inspiration returning) dealings with the public, opportunities appear Monday to Wed. midmorning (PDT). Any of these that return from the past, but to delay making new plans until Oct. 9 onward.) Now to November 12, strictly avoid lawsuits, and look from the past might be okay; new ones will not be. Avoid stress, erratic driving, sharp words Tues. all s well that ends well, sceptically on international travel, higher learning, religion, cultural rituals and publishing opportunities. Instead, keep and it does. Secrets, large finances, sexual yearning and health matters fill Wed. morn to Fri. noon. things light and casual. Reserve Sunday for a very pleasant rest. Your energy and charisma surge upward Mon./Tues. get out, impress people, tackle chores that are not new, but have intimidated you previously. Leo July 23-Aug. 22 Remember, start no new projects nor relationships and buy nothing important before October 9. Be vigilant Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18 with errands, mail, calls double-check figures, addresses, etc. make a To Do list before you leave the house. Remember, Aquarius, start no new projects nor relationships before October 9. An old flame (or teacher, In fact, keep a running list, and add to it as you go. A long-lost piece of mail, , or note might float to the surface now. A or idea/life philosophy, travel destination, intellectual pursuit or cultural involvement) might re-appear, friend might re-appear from the past, a fine person, but it s not likely to develop much further. Romance at least the notion especially Wed. into early October. Career, governmental or institutional delays of the past 5 months dissolve now, so look of it fills Sunday, as do creative and gambling urges, pleasure and beauty. A perfect Sunday! Tackle chores Mon./Tues. take forward to solutions, progress (but wait until Oct. 9 onward to push these). Now to November 12, your interest in sex and care Tues. daytime, with tools, driving, electricity. This night is sweet, loving, might hold a nice surprise. Relationships face physical gratification and in financial manoeuvres will flare hot, and could burn you be careful. Abstain = wisdom. you from Wed. morning to Friday noon this includes relocation themes, dealing with the public, negotiations, litigation, and Sunday, you ll feel popular, happy you ll sense that your wishes will come true, sooner or later. But retreat, rest and contemplate Mon./Tues. Get away from the bustling crowd, and avoid competitive situations, especially Tues. daytime, when opportunities as well as possible competition, even enmity. Almost everything is good here (remember, nothing, no one new recycled opportunities or an ex-spouse could be a great thing, but not a new person or new opportunity). tension is high. Your energy and charisma soar Wed,/Thurs., just in time to start a month of love, wisdom, far travel, higher learning and social rituals (e.g., weddings). But don t let a secret out (especially Thurs.) nor engage in gossip nor in crime! Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22 Pisces Feb. 19-March 20 Remember, Virgo, don t start anything new before October 9, especially in money, earnings, sensual affairs A former sexual attraction might appear. Before you leap in, make sure that neither of you is already attached, and possessions. This is a poor time to start a rote learning class (i.e., where you accept the knowledge of and that you aren t compromising morals or social ethics. If so, this could be a healing, beneficial intimacy. A others rather than seek your own answers). Watch for unexpected delays, check figures and instructions twice. A former former coveted investment opportunity might also return and is probably beneficial. Secrets come to you over the weeks money source might re-appear, or you could have a chance to buy something which passed you by when you first pursued it.

She was among the guests at this year s Notte In Bianco. Mental health experts estimate that two out of five children are currently struggling with mental-health related issues.

We would like to do this through the use of preventive measures, so that they never have to experience the negative repercussions of mental illness.
