Ottawa MPP and former cabinet minister Lisa MacLeod says she’s returning to the legislature after taking time to heal.
Ottawa-area MPP and former cabinet minister Lisa MacLeod says she’s returning to the legislature Tuesday after taking time to heal following a mid-May — and midelection — “mental health crisis.”
“In mid-May I suffered a mental health crisis that drew attention to broader mental and physical health challenges that I was experiencing,” she said in an open post on social media as the legislature prepares to begin its fall sitting. “I am confident that with the right medication, regular therapy and changes to my nutritional and exercise routines I will be able to manage these concurrent diagnoses as others do.”“We are always grateful when persons with a public profile help to combat stigma and raise awareness of mental health by telling their story,” said Camille Quenneville, chief executive of the Ontario division.
MacLeod politely declined to speak to the Star on Friday, citing a 2019 editorial page cartoon in the newspaper depicting her in a straitjacket.
