« Life's a bitch, then you die ». Une phrase qui nous a souvent fait rire mes ami·es et moi en grandissant. Une phrase dite par ma mère, à la joke, mais qui prend tout son sens plus je grandis. Je ne vous apprends rien en disant que la vie est courte, remplie d'incertitudes et de choses qui sont souvent hors de notre contrôle. Cliché, assurément, mais vrai. Nous vivons dans un monde où nous ne sommes pas à l'abri de maladies dévastatrices, de commentaires blessants ou de masculinité toxique. Mais quoi faire face à ces situations qui peuvent facilement nous faire sentir tout petit dans ce grand monde? Nous nous tournons vers qui? vers quoi?

C'est là que la phrase prend tout son sens: face à l'incertitude, il faut s'accrocher à ce qui est là, devant nous aujourd'hui, que ce soit tangible ou non. Il faut s'attacher à nos parents, à notre famille, à nos ami·es, à ces personnes qui comblent nos souvenirs et nos cœurs. Il faut embrasser tous les sentiments qui nous traversent et nous sont donnés. Je me considère très chanceux car j'ai grandi entouré d'amour sans borne, de rires forts et vibrants, de bonheur à en accumuler des plis, de générosité à n'en plus compter, de pleurs remplis d'affection et de célébrations remplies de sincérité.

J'ai grandi autour d'hommes qui disent librement et abondamment « je t'aime ». Des hommes qui n'ont pas peur de danser, même qu'ils sont souvent les premiers debouts. Des hommes qui savent pleurer et qui n'ont pas peur de le montrer. Des hommes qui prennent soin de leur entourage, mais surtout, d'eux-mêmes. Des hommes qui sont ouverts au changement et à redéfinir c'est quoi d'être un homme. J'ai grandi dans un environnement de collectivité, d'entraide et de communauté. J'ai appris à recueillir cette intangibilité, mais que le plus important, c'est de le semer à son tour.

C'est ainsi, qu'en joignant force avec Movember, j'espère pouvoir redonner autant. Offrons nous de la délicatesse. Appelons nous. Rions. Dansons. Sourions. Aimons. Brisons les barrières. Prenons rien pour acquis. Sortons de nos habitudes, et essayons de redonner à toute personne qui croise nos chemins. Osons d'être différent, d'être bon, d'être une source de bonheur pour quelqu'un. Car devant l'inconnu de tout ce que cette vie nous réserve, nous ne pouvons vraiment que remercier la vie de ce que nous avons là, à l'instant présent.

Merci aux hommes de ma vie, mais surtout à toute personne qui me permet et m'aide à être l'homme que je suis et deviens. Prenons soin de nous, et rallions nous à cette cause qui nous touche, de près ou de loin. Bon mois de Movember !

The results are in for the 2025 U of Mo Campus Challenge — and what a year it has been!

Students, clubs, societies, and campuses across Canada came together to raise $389,272 for men’s health, with 1288 students across 316 campuses taking part.

Now, to crown our campus champion.

With an impressive $30,687 raised, McMaster University is officially the 2025 U of Mo Champion.

This year saw some of the closest competition we’ve had. McGill University took silver, Concordia University secured bronze, and University of Western Ontario and University of Waterloo rounded out our top contenders.

To every student who participated — thank you. You’ve sparked conversations, raised awareness, and helped push men’s health forward within your communities.

Your leadership now helps build a healthier future later.

United We Mo.

Week 3 is wrapping up, and campuses across Canada are absolutely crushing it. Students, clubs, faculties, and teams are stepping up — growing bold Mos, hosting events, and raising awareness for men’s mental health and prostate cancer and testicular cancer.

A special shoutout to Pringles, whose dollar match this week gave student fundraising an incredible lift. Thanks for helping amplify the impact across campuses.

See who’s climbing the campus leaderboard.

Let’s keep the student energy high as we head into the final week. Finish strong, keep spreading the word, and keep showing your campus what Movember is all about.

To everyone who grew, moved, donated, or raised awareness — thank you for bringing Movember to life. Your dedication is laying a stronger foundation for men’s health and helping us reach more men than ever before.

Movember 30 is just around the corner—time to ace the final exam!

Thank you for laying a strong foundation of support throughout Movember.
As we head toward the final stretch, take a moment to appreciate the hard work—you’ve raised the bar for men’s health with every Mo, every event, and every dollar raised.

Mark this deadline in your calendar: the leaderboards will officially close on Tuesday, December 10th, at 5 PM EST. That’s when we’ll award the 2024 U of Mo Champions. While donations can still come in after this deadline, they won’t count toward the leaderboard standings.

Let’s finish strong and continue to build a brighter future for men’s health together. Thank you for being the scholars of this amazing movement!

Ah, Week 3 of Movember—you’re really getting the course work now! That Mo is shaping up like a semester-long project—getting more refined with each passing day. Whether you're aiming for a sharp, well-organized look or letting it grow naturally like an open-ended assignment, you’re well on your way to a top-tier result.

Don’t let the pressure build—some regular grooming can help you keep everything in check! And remember, every hair is part of the curriculum you’re following to support men’s health.

Keep working hard and stay focused; you’re all helping us change the face of men’s health by growing, moving, hosting, and Mo’ing your own way!

Thank-you for your commitment and support.

We've now arrived at Movember 30 and everyone in this challenge should pause for a moment to reflect on an amazing job done, what can only be described as an epic 'stache and an impressive commitment to help change the face of men's health.

As Mo season is coming to a close, I want to flag that the leaderboards will officially close on Thursday, December 7th at 5 pm EST, marking the moment we crown our 2023 Movember champions of each challenge. While donations can still be received after this time, please note that they won't contribute to the leaderboard race.

Thanks for all you have done this year and will continue to do as we move forward.

United We Mo!!!
