At least 59 Canadian soldiers died by suicide after Afghanistan war

At least 59 Canadian soldiers died by suicide after Afghanistan war - The Globe and Mail:

The suicide count is more than one third of the number of military members who died in the war. There were 158 military deaths in theatre during the 13-year NATO-led combat operation that began in 2001 and ended last year.

The Forces also disclosed another figure that it had been keeping secret, citing privacy concerns as the reason. Of the soldiers who died in the mission, six took their lives.
