I was going to crank call Motoo from the suicide phones, unfortunately they only have a number to dial the suicide hotline.

The bridge over the DVP in Toronto was also a popular place for jumpers. The millions spent on the barrier made me FURIOUS. If they took that money and put it into prevention and intervention, it might actually do something. At the time I remember thinking: They could pay to have two crisis counsellors (one at each end of the bridge) 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and it would still be cheaper. Because if people want to kill themselves they're just going to go to the next bridges (within sight). Never mind that if you actually go to either end of the bridge, it wouldn't take a genius to figure out that you can just climb the barrier from the outside.
