The Reason Why I Take My Life

We Have Witnessed The Terrible Increases In The Incidence Of Alcoholism, The Advent Of Drug Dependency, The Protests, Marches, Strikes And Human Alienation.

I Do Not Regard It As Wrong To Take My Life, Because I Simply Change My Place Of Residence And Go Where My Wife And Baby Are.

My Death Will Be Caused By Morphine, Which I Have Deliberately Taken With Suicidal Intent.

As A Consequence, Progress Has Come To Mean Simply More Power, More Profit, More Productivity, More Paper Prosperity, All Of Which Are Convertible Into Standards Concerned Only With Size Or Magnitude Rather Than Quality Or Excellence.

However, If We Examine The Canadian Scene Closely Enough, We Can See Signs Of This Physical And Spiritual Rot Settling Into A Number Of Our Canadian Urban Centres With A Troubling Spill-over Into Many Of Our More Rural Areas.
