The Victoria Council of Canadians, a member of the South Islands Health Coalition will be taking part in the BC Health Coalition’s National Day of Action for a 2014 Health Accord. This Day of Action was organized by The Canadian Health Coalition and The Council of Canadians. We want the provinces to work together to get the federal government back to the negotiating table so they can get down to the work of creating a new health accord for all Canadians.
In January 2012, Maude Barlow, Mike Luff and Diana Gibson discussed the future of Canadian healthcare and creeping privatization at a very well attended townhall meeting in Victoria, here’s the video from the event.
The message was clear last night at a packed Victoria town hall meeting on the 2014 health accord: the provinces and federal government must work together to negotiate a new health accord that reflects Canadian values and addresses growing spending on for-profit care.
