What is one of the most devastating impacts of lockdowns? The toll they’ve taken on the mental health of Canadians. This cannot be overlooked.
A Globe And Mail article published in January of this year relays the detrimental impact that the lockdown has had on the mental well-being of Canadians.
These statistics speak for themselves. Many cases of abuse and neglect are reported to police by schools and healthcare institutions because of the safe environment they create for young people. Limiting access to these necessary spaces cuts the line of communication between abuse victims and Police Services, inhibiting the victim from receiving the mental and physical help they need. This subjects young people to further abuse at home and leaves them to cope with limited resources.
