  "The show of support for mental health here yesterday was tremendous," said Dan McKeen, Senior Vice President, Customer Solutions.

  "Setting a new WORLD RECORD title is not something you get to take part in every day, and the additional money raised and support provided to Canadians suffering with mental illness made everyone very proud - it was amazing to be a part of it."

  The Bell Let's Talk mental health initiative is a multi-year, $50-million charitable program based on four action pillars: anti-stigma, care and access, research, and workplace best practices.
