A very successful and much needed pilot mental health program was suddenly and quietly axed by our not-so-forward-thinking government. It seems they thought they could fly under the radar on this one, but mental health staff and clients went ballistic. The government quickly recanted, miraculously finding funding for another year. Rumors abound that their folly was inspired by the possibility of a national election, and thus the lunatic logic that playing Russian roulette with necessary health programs could lead to more federal funding for other apparently more important items, like mining and building bridges.
