Did you know that bullying happens once every seven minutes on the playground and once every 25 minutes in class?

Bullying is a sad, tragic reality that affects virtually every Canadian child as a victim, bully or bystander. And as much as we would always like to be there to help, the reality is that most bullying episodes occur when adults aren't around. It's therefore essential that we empower children with tools to address bullying on their own.

CCA's anti-bullying commercials, "Walk Away" and "Words Hurt", aim to empower bully bystanders or the "silent majority" that might stand and watch bullying with practical tools and information to start making a difference.
