I am very sorry I missed this program:

I think it's very gracious of her to
share her story.

Thanks for posting this. Even as she was constantly in the news after their divorce, Mrs. Trudeau Sinclair was to me always a fragile and volatile individual. That she has come forward with her experience is yet another tribute to her perseversance.

Yet another piece in the human puzzle. I hope that people come forward in so many numbers that we, as a population, can no longer be marginalised. Mental health is an issue that all of us deal with, every day. Most families sweep us under the rug, even as we are under treatment. "Having a bad time", "Going thru a bad patch", how many other euphemisms have we heard? How about - "She is ill and getting treatment for her sickness."

I am grateful that Mme Trudeau Sinclair has brought this issue to the front page. If only Mick Jagger would consent to be photographed with her, she'd get world-wide attention.

She is making a great personal and
financial contribution to mental health:
The Royal Ottawa facility, for example.
Maybe Mick Jagger can write a song
about her :-)
