I found statistics on Mental Health in Canada.

I found that 20% of Canadians face a Mental illness at least once in their lifetime. The population used in this survey were Canadians and the type of sample used to find the amount of Canadians suffering from mental illness was Convenience. We don’t know the personal lives of each person affected by mental illness. My prediction would be that many Canadians live with a mental issue, that the percent is high. I had assumed there would be a high percentage of Canadians suffering from mental illness, as it is a popular/common issue.
