MAID should be the last option used. I'd like to see that bridge guy get the help he needs before anything else. Problem is getting and accessing that help. The heath system in Alberta when it comes to mental illness is sorely lacking with wait times of up to a year or more to see a psychiatrist. Want to see a psychologist? Better have deep pockets if you're not lucky to have a health plan that covers it. It's a joke as far as I'm concerned.
