In 2009, television personality Michael Landsberg publicly disclosed his struggles with mental illness during an interview on his program "Off The Record." Since his candid disclosure, he has worked passionately to shatter the stigma associated with mental illness as an ambassador for the Bell Let’s Talk initiative and by mounting his own social media campaign, Sick Not Weak. His frank, honest and fearless dialogue has inspired countless Canadians to speak up and seek the help they need.
