The health workforce is under enormous pressure and “business as usual” is no longer an option.
This issue requires daring leaders in public policy, and politics working together to demand better health systems and a healthier political climate for the sake of all Canadians. The Honourable Jane Philpott, dean, Health Sciences at Queen’s University, will share her perspective on how leaders can transform health systems as outlined in her recent best-selling book, Health for All: A Doctor’s Prescription for a Healthier Canada.
