To reduce suicide rates, it is important to open up both a one鈥憃n鈥憃ne and a collective dialogue on the topic. Since suicide already receives extensive media coverage and features prominently in fiction and on social networks, the AQPS believes that it is important to answer the questions that many Quebecers have and offer guidance on how to talk about it.

Infertility is almost always thought of as a woman鈥檚 issue, and it鈥檚 true that women bear the greater burden of it. And yet up to 50% of cases in which couples can鈥檛 have babies are due in some way to men. More men are talking about it now, but it remains stigmatized, especially in the U.S. Men are largely absent from public conversation around infertility, and even those who have looked for support hesitate to identify as someone struggling with male infertility.
