Today we join communities across Canada for Bell Let’s Talk Day.

This year’s theme — “taking a moment for mental health” — reminds us that even small pauses can create space for awareness, compassion, and meaningful change.

Taking a moment can look different for everyone:
• A moment to check in with yourself.
• A moment to be there for someone who might be struggling.
• A moment to recognize how important mental health supports are for our whole community.

By talking openly and listening without judgment, we help reduce stigma and make it easier for people to reach out when they need care.

If you or someone you know may need help, take a moment today to explore the mental health services available to you.
