Steven Page is a natural in front of a crowd. Having shot to international fame as the co-founder of The Barenaked Ladies, Page now boasts an impressive solo career, where he continues to showcase his creative genius. The Barenaked Ladies earned accolades from all over the world, sold millions of albums, received two Billboard Awards, and six Juno awards. As an independent artist, Page has recorded three albums and has written music for both theatre and film.
Steven Page has never shied away from talking about his struggles with depression. He speaks passionately on a twofold approach to promoting mental health as a society: increasing awareness and decreasing stigma.
In his compelling talk, Page reminds us that anyone can suffer from mental illness, and that everyone has a role to play in ending the stigma.
An intelligent, honest and witty speaker, Page continues to earn his rightful place in our national conversation.
