Or listen on the CBC website.
We’ve also now tracked down audio of the interview on All Points West hosted by Jo-Ann Roberts on CBC British Columbia, from the afternoon of Monday, May 6. Bill was joined by Chris Holt, Executive Co-Director of NEED2 in this interview on the CBC website.
(Note: In an earlier version of this post we had embedded audio players from the CBC. Due to an autoplay issue, we have decided to remove the embedded players, and now only have links to the two interviews.)
Thank you so much for your commitment. We (me now that our daughter’s mom is gone to a brain disease, and my daughter who is still surviving clinical depression ) want to encourage you to go and carry on. I know the pain and I know the stigma attached to depression, and I just go. Let me know if you need some money to help offset your costs, or at least where I can contribute. Best personal regards.
