Abstract
Canada as well as many other countries is plagued by high inflation, unemployment, bankruptcies, and overall uncertainty as to what lies ahead. The world is mad and we inhabitants are swept uncontrollably along to our unknown destination. Social and civil rights activists daily march and make their demands of governments, anti-nuclear demonstrations abound, and at the same time politicians talk peace but gird for war. Family units are breaking down at an alarming rate, the crime rate soars and little children are defenseless. Social services already overburdened have had their budgets slashed and can no longer even pretend to provide adequate intervention.
