IN 2024, CANADA RECORDED 21 OPIOID-RELATED DEATHS EVERY DAY.

Since 2016, 3 out of 4 people who died from opioids in Canada were men. Of the
men who had jobs when they died, 30% to 50% worked in a trade.


MEN ARE OFTEN EXPECTED TO NOT TALK ABOUT USING OPIOIDS OR HAVING MENTAL HEALTH
PROBLEMS.

42% of men who went to the hospital for opioid use also had mental health
issues. But their friends and family often don’t know they need help.


OPIOID-RELATED HARMS ARE HIGHER AMONG INDIGENOUS PEOPLES.

For example, toxic drug poisoning deaths in BC were 6 times higher among First
Nations people than other residents (Jan - June 2023). The lasting impacts and
trauma of colonization are a key reason. Another is the struggle to access
culturally sensitive healthcare.


OPIOID ADDICTION IS OFTEN HIDDEN BECAUSE PEOPLE TRY TO KEEP THEIR PROBLEMS A
SECRET.

Friends and family might not know they need help. We need to be kind,
understanding and offer support. To help us do this, it is important to learn
about opioid harms and support resources.


NO ONE SHOULD FEEL ALONE OR ASHAMED ABOUT THEIR STRUGGLES.

People can get better when they have access to treatment and support.
