Recommendations are not binding Continued from page 11 13 · Wednesday, June 30, 2010 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.oakvillebeaver.com from Paxil occur within the first few weeks and months after a person starts taking it. Sara had been taking the drug for more than a year before her death. Dr. Paul Links, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Toronto and past president of the Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention, testified Paxil was a plausible explanation for Sara's death, but not one he would favour. Dr. Nathan Scharf , director of crisis services at the Youthdale Treatment Centre in Toronto, testified Paxil could have been a contributing factor in Sara's death, but not as big a factor as alcohol. Links did agree that a sudden withdrawal from Paxil could result in dysphoria and disinhibition. In his arguments, Will pointed out Sara had been without her pills for one to four days before her death. Exactly how much information these experts had on Sara Carlin's case was made an issue during the inquest. Will said Scharf had only had access to a page and a half of information. While the recommendations have been made, the government bodies they are directed at have no legal obligation to implement them. Coroner's counsel Michael Blain said, however, that more often than not the recommendations do result in action. "The Coroner's office does track recommendations and a large per- centage of recommendations do in fact result in actions being taken," he said. "Obviously it's not 100 per cent, but there is a significant percentage of recommendations that do end up bringing about change." While he is hopeful, Will said some of the recommendations made by this jury were also made by a previous jury during the inquest into the death of Oakville MP Terence Young's daughter, Vanessa, nine years ago. "There were 56 recommendations made during that inquest and very few were actually implemented," said Will. "Hopefully because many of these recommendations have now been made a second time there will be action." More cost-effective kitchen remodeling options than any other company! a.

The six-year-old organization was deemed a 2010 Champion by the Ontario Municipal Social Services Association for its commitment to "planning, managing and delivering quality services for children and families in Halton through integration, collaboration and evidence-based practices." Our Kids is not an individual group but rather a community network of partners in Halton including the two English school boards, the children's aid society, Reach Out Centre for Kids (ROCK), and Halton Region's police, public health and social services divisions. "Recognizing the demands on government and community resources, it is critical to explore new ways to support neighbourhoods, families and children and avoid duplication of effort," Our Kids explains for its multi-disciplinary approach on its website. "Children and families face complex and multifaceted problems: these problems do not occur in isolation of one another. We recognize that there is a cost in human and fiscal terms associated with the unmet needs of children, which is at epidemic proportions (school failure, unemployment, poverty, crime...)" Our Kids has become most notable for its extensive reports which collate data on the health and well-being of children and youth in the community. It has used the information to identify priority service needs and neighbourhoods, including Aldershot, Oakville's River Oaks, west Milton and Acton. As part of what it says is is a commitment to the democratization of data, it includes the reports, and the surveys behind them, on its website www.ourkidsnetwork.ca. The organization has been recognized for its approach in the past. It was also the winner of the 2008 International Community Innovation Award presented by the Community Indicators Consortium. It was also recognized this year by the Ontario Education Research Panel, in partnership with the Education Research and Evaluation Strategy Branch, as one of the leading community partnerships in Ontario for its strength and achievements as a community partnership. b.
