| 520 | |a“This report sets out what Commissioners have learned about suicide among Aboriginal people and how we think its incidence and effects can be reduced. In the report we discuss: how suicide among Aboriginal people is similar to suicide among all people, and how it is different; who is most at risk and why; what is already being done to help, and what more could be done; key elements in the strategies that work; and recommendations for immediate and long-term reduction of the problem. The report depends as much on the views and life stories of Aboriginal people as on the insights of research to arrive at an understanding of the problem of suicide and its solutions. Inevitably, some of the stories are grim. But most are full of hope, pointing the way forward. Our purposes in publishing this report are, first, to increase the understanding of Canadians in general; second, to share the ideas for change we have heard from Aboriginal communities; and third, to make recommendations to all responsible authorities for action to alleviate an intolerable situation”--Contents, p. 4. |
