Mayor Dennis Fenske has proclaimed the week starting on September 10th as 'World Suicide Prevention Week' in the City of Thompson.
Communities across Canada and the world will be recognizing the week which will raise awareness for suicide.
Fenske urges citizens to connect, communicate and care as called for by the Canadian Association for Suicide Prevention.
Eleven Canadians die by suicide everyday and another 275 Canadians attempt suicide each day.
