      According to the WHO, 50% of all statistics are made up. Unsourced statistics have an even higher diagnosis rate: 70%!

      But who would lie on the internet?

      Assuming your numbers sre even correct, id say thats more an issue with the cdc underreporting mental health issues than with Canadians being more predisposed. Also what is your point exactly?

      Interesting stats. I can imagine the arrow of causality going both ways.

      (I don’t know why you’re being downvoted for comparative statistics…)

          Primarily. Also, they seem to be linking cannabis use with homelessness for some reason, and are surprised that diagnoses of mental illnesses are higher in a country where people have universal health care.
