The hardest year of Susan Stewart’s life nearly ended it. Then she did what any comedian would do: she wrote a show about it.

A comedian and mental health speaker, Susan thought she knew a thing or two about resilience. She had survived depression before, built a career helping people see the lighter side of life, and spent years believing she had beaten it. Then 2023 happened.

When depression (and severe anxiety) came roaring back, Susan was convinced she could handle it. She exercised. She meditated. She read the books. She self-helped the hell out of herself. But as things got worse, she resisted the very help she would have encouraged anyone else to get. What she dismissed as a “rough patch” eventually became a mental health crisis that culminated in a suicide attempt which forced her to confront the shame, stigma, and destructive thought patterns she could no longer outrun.

Based on her hit comedy show, A Bit More Than a Rough Patch is Susan’s sometimes hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking, always true account of losing hope and finding it again. With the wit of a comedian and the perspective of someone who has been to the darkest edge and returned, Susan reminds us that taking mental health seriously doesn’t mean we have to stop laughing.

Cassie Campbell-Pascall is more than just one of Canada’s all-time hockey players — coming of age in the generation that rejected the old-school administrators who thought it acceptable to dress world-class athletes in pink uniforms, she helped build the very foundation of the modern women’s game.

As a player, Cassie was the longest-serving captain in Canadian hockey history, the first of any gender to lead the country to two Olympic gold medals, and a centrepiece of teams that shattered viewership records while doing so.

In her memoir, Just a Girl, Cassie gives a rare, raw look at the relentless spirit that has driven one of the greatest athletes in Canadian history.

When a soldier steps forward to take on a difficult task, they say they are going “into the breach,” and few Canadian senior military leaders have jumped into the breach more often and with such conviction as our most recent Chief of the Defence Staff, General Wayne Eyre.

In his memoir, Wayne recounts jumping right into the fire: leading peacekeeping missions in Cyprus, Croatia, and Bosnia, the Afghanistan evacuation, supporting Ukraine in their fight against Russian aggression, confronting Chinese intimidation in the Pacific and spy balloons over North America, and leading Canada’s contribution to the international effort to defend South Korea in a time of rapidly changing geopolitical dynamics. While at home, he describes battling floods and forest fires across Canada, supporting the country during the worst of COVID, and, behind the scenes, fighting in the halls of power to get the resources needed to defend our nation as the threat levels increased every day, especially to our arctic sovereignty.

The result is a riveting memoir about war and peace from Canada’s former top soldier, General Wayne Eyre, on his career as a soldier and his thoughts on our Arctic sovereignty, our relationship with the United States, and our place in the world during Canada’s greatest time of need.

As an elite athlete — the only person who has won multiple medals in both the Summer and Winter Olympic Games — Clara Hughes thrived on powering through pain, with profound consequences for her body and mind. Following her retirement from sport, the mantra “movement as medicine” fueled her public advocacy for mental health and her personal healing journey. However, Clara’s attraction to extremes persisted: grueling months-long hikes and bike-packing trips began to take a toll. In 2021, a catastrophic knee injury coincided with menopausal hot flashes and dizzying mood swings, forcing her into stillness, and her depression, kept at bay for years, loomed larger than ever.

How do you move forward when the body you’ve always relied on doesn’t bounce back like it used to, when you feel like a stranger to yourself, and the punishing voice in your head won’t stop? Clara sought help through traditional avenues, but after realizing how little support there is for people in menopause, she turned to a different kind of medicine. Enter the world of psychedelic-assisted therapy.

Through guided experiences — some hilarious, some alarming, and some mind-expanding — Clara begins a winding trip back to herself, and to a deeper awareness of the roots of the inner pain she’d suppressed through sport. Along the way, she forges new relationships, begins the work of repairing old ones, and faces long-held fears.

The dramatic, high-stakes account of Artemis II told from the perspective of Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen.

The historic Artemis II mission was celebrated around the world and broke the record for the farthest distance humans have ever travelled from Earth. Jeremy and his crew mates viewed parts    of the moon never before seen by human eyes, journeyed roughly 1,117,659 kilometres, took the next step in space travel, and won the hearts of everyone back home on Earth in the process.

Now, Earthrise gives readers a passenger-seat view into the daring deep-space journey and the long years of intense training, grit, and perseverance Jeremy needed to prepare for lift-off and fulfill his lifelong dream of becoming an astronaut.

A riveting and intimate account of the iconic achievement of Artemis II, Earthrise—written by author John Larsen and based on extensive interviews he conducted with Jeremy—is a testament to what can be achieved with unity, teamwork, and a bold belief in humanity’s ability to reach for the stars.
