Canadian youth struggle with making friends and bullying: UNICEF report

UNICEF released a report on May 13, 2025, showing many Canadian youth face bullying and difficulty making friends, lowering life satisfaction.
These social challenges affecting children's mental health and support systems were present prior to the pandemic and remain prevalent today.
The report ranks Canada 19th of 36 wealthy countries overall, with top academic skills but poor social skills, adolescent suicide, and child mortality rates.
One in five youth report frequent bullying and loneliness, one in four find it hard to make friends, and life satisfaction among 15-year-olds fell to 76%.
UNICEF and experts call for early supports and fundamental policy changes in education, income benefits, healthcare, and protections to help children thrive.
