Share your voice: Men and Boys’ Health

Here in Edmonton Centre, I hear every day from people working to build a healthier, more connected community — for themselves, their families, and their loved ones.

But we also know that many men and boys are facing real challenges when it comes to addressing mental health, preventing harm, and accessing care — and too often, these struggles go unheard.

That’s why our government has launched a national conversation on Men and Boys’ Health — and your voice matters.

We’re working to develop Canada’s first-ever Men and Boys’ Health Strategy, and your input will help shape what comes next.

Whether you’re sharing your own experience, supporting someone in your life, or working in this space — we want to hear from you.

Canadians can now share their perspectives through an online consultation open until June 1, 2026.

If you work in health, social services, education, or community support, we encourage you to share your expertise.

We’re accepting written briefs on how our new government can best support men and boys — including reducing stigma, promoting healthy relationships, improving access to mental health and addiction supports, and addressing key life stages and transitions.

Submissions should be up to 1,000 words and are due by June 1, 2026.

Building Canada Strong starts with all Canadians feeling supported, connected, and able to access the care they deserve. This is an opportunity for Edmonton Centre to shape a strategy that reflects real experiences and makes our country stronger.

Thank you for being part of this important conversation.

All my best,
