Message from Minister Lawrence MacAulay on Bell Let’s Talk Day 2025
Ottawa, January 22, 2025 – Today, on Bell Let’s Talk Day, I join Canadians in shining a light on the importance of mental health and well-being.
Mental health challenges affect people of all ages, backgrounds, and walks of life. It’s an issue that touches us all, whether personally or through loved ones.
The Government of Canada is committed to supporting the mental well-being of all Canadians. That’s why we have made significant investments in mental health programs and services, including:
- Expanding access to mental health care through our Mental Health Action Plan
- Providing funding to the Canadian Mental Health Association for its BounceBack program
- Launching the Wellness Together Canada portal, which offers free and confidential mental health and addiction support
On Bell Let’s Talk Day, let’s have open and honest conversations about mental health. Let’s break down the stigma that prevents too many people from seeking the help they need.
We can all make a difference in the lives of those struggling with mental health challenges. By offering support, listening without judgment, and encouraging professional help when needed, we can create a more compassionate and inclusive society.
The resources available to Canadians struggling with mental health challenges are growing, but there is still more work to be done. On Bell Let’s Talk Day and every day, let’s continue to advocate for mental health and ensure that everyone has access to the support they need.
Together, we can build a Canada where everyone can thrive, regardless of their mental health status.
The Honourable Lawrence MacAulay, P.C., M.P. Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food and Minister responsible for the Canadian Dairy Commission
