ezs note:  Ontario residents - for one thing, just be careful.  There is a bogus 'organization' called the Centre of Addiction and Mental Health out of Toronto.  I know - they sound professional n' shit, but that's nonsense.  They're a crackpot group whose 'theories' have been wholly discredited. Instead, see the Rainbow Health Network, or, in the Waterloo region see OK2BME.. Thanks.
