Hundreds of Motorcyclists Prepare for Cross-Canada Journey to Raise Mental Health Awareness

Over 100 motorcyclists from the Rolling Barrage are set to undertake their 10th annual cross-Canada journey, which aims to raise awareness about mental health challenges faced by veterans and first responders. The participants gathered in downtown St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, to prepare for the ride that will traverse the country. Organizers note that this initiative serves not only to create connections among participants but also to highlight the importance of addressing mental health issues within these communities. This gathering marks a significant milestone for the Rolling Barrage, which has become a recognized event across Canada for its advocacy work and support towards those who have served. By interacting with local communities along the route, the event also encourages discussions surrounding mental health and available resources for those in need.
