SASKATOON --
Allan Kehler is looking to change the landscape of the outlook on men's mental health issues.
Prior to COVID-19, Kehler would travel to communities across Sask. to interview and speak on men's mental health issues.
He says he found a lot of men who were done with hiding their emotions and ready to share their stories.
Over time, Kehler saw a common theme from all his interviews.
"After they reached out for help they said, 'that wasn't that bad, what I thought was going to happen didn't actually happen.'"
Instead they felt welcomed, liberated and that they didn’t need to hide.
