Ladies and Gentlemen, we interrupt this program for a special announcement:

This year's Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW) is on September 30 - October 6 for us, Canucks (and on Oct. 7-13, 2012 south of the border)

What the heck is MIAW about?

Mental Illness Awareness Week (MIAW) is an annual national public education campaign designed to help open the eyes of Canadians to the reality of mental illness.
