It's all a bunch of BS by the far left to perpetuate their own belief systems and income streams.

Men are far more likely to die from drug abuse:

and 3 times more likely to commit suicide in Canada:

I personally have 5 male Facebook friends who've died due to suicide or drug addiction, and I blame garbage like this and lack of resources for their deaths. They've also missed a large opportunity to stop violence committed by men. Many men who commit violent acts clearly have "issues", either mental health or otherwise. Instead of offering them a place where they can shamelessly get treatment, the universities put self-serving barriers in the way. It's already notoriously difficult for men to admit they need counselling, as it plays against society's male image to do so.

Anyways.../rant. This is an issue that gets me a bit fired up.
