Canadian Community Overwhelmed by Suicide Crisis

A Canadian aboriginal community has declared a state of emergency after 11 people tried to commit suicide on Saturday.

The weekend's incidents are the latest in a wave of attempted suicides that have overwhelmed the Attawapiskat First Nation, a community of about 2,000 people on James Bay in remote northern Ontario. Since September, 100 people have attempted suicide, reports to Canada's CBC News, with 28 attempts in March alone. There has been one recorded death.
