Musicians rock and talk with students in Wollaston Lake
Following tragedies in Northern Saskatchewan, communities are hoping to find solutions to the suicide crisis.
The Father Megret High School looked to Robb Nash to engage youth from the Wollaston Lake area on the topic of suicide, as well as mental health and addictions. After stopping in Prince Albert last year, he and drummer Jonny Holiday visited the school on May 17.
At 17, Nash went through a life changing experience after the vehicle he and his friends were in collided with a semi truck. Nash said he was pronounced dead upon arrival, but was resuscitated and left in a coma. When he awoke, he found himself in a “really dark place.”
“I didn’t want to be alive,” Nash said.
