Re: [EN+FR] Let's Talk

You really got issues buddy. The real winners here are those suffering from mental illnesses. Regardless of the corporation running the campaign raising awareness is key and its another step in the right direction of tackling this situation.

No, they don't win. They get squat. I work and volunteer in the mental health sector. Bell's money means little.

Please, elaborate.

As I pointed out, the problem is the corporation running the campaign. Awareness is the key, but WHY do we need to forward the BELL brand in social media networks ?

If you want awareless, use the neutral #MentalIllness hashtag and reach Telus customers in western Canada, not any #Bell* variation hashtag. It's just wrong.

I don't have a problem with a business supporting a cause like this. I suspect that mental illness has touched the life of someone high up in the organization, so they've taken up the cause. That's how these things happen - for better or for worse.

I do however note focus seems to focus heavily on the Bell brand - to the point of being a bit obnoxious.

Maybe because other brands have mostly "IGNORED" The problem. does this not make sense to you? if you ignored the problem and other companies are offering help, people will see there is some light at the end of the other tunnel, even if its not their employer they are still happy that someone is listening,
