Thanks to Don, Bonnie,
and all the other leaders, movers and shakers in Toronto's psychiatric
survivor community - You know who you are! - for raising my consciousness
and making me realize that maybe I wasn't 'sick' after all... and that
the 'illness' ran far deeper in this society.
-
Thanks to Jennifer, Erick, and all the other members of the Patient's
Council at Queen Street Mental Health Centre for your dedicated struggle
to protect the rights of our sisters and brothers who are still incarcerated.
-
Thanks to John Clarke and all the other members of the Ontario
Coalition Against Poverty for your determined resistance to the evils
of the Mike Harris Tory agenda of cruelty... and for your rock-solid support
during my own hour of need while facing the courts in '96.

Much gratitude to Lynne, Jane, Gloria, and the members of Survivors
Of Sexual and Spiritual Abuse, as well as all my wonderful sisters
and brothers in the Native community -- you took in this lonely European
and helped him feel like a human being again.
-
Much gratitude to my friends and surrogate family from the MADNESS
E-mail list for your friendship and support, fascinating dialogue, and
occasional angry debate.
