Townhall: Public Health Care in Canada and the US: A Matter of Justice

The United States and Canada have very different systems of health care. Americans are currently fighting to expand health care with a system of single-payer Medicare for All. Canadians pride themselves on their public healthcare system, but there are still many gaps to be addressed.
Join labour leaders and progressive politicians for a discussion on how we can work together to build the public health care systems of the 21st century. We will explore the past, present and future of public health care on both sides of the border.

Don was joined by Suzie Mah, Vancouver School Board Trustee, and Sherry Stevenson, Executive Director of Fresh Roots Urban Farm at a town hall to discuss the national school nutrition program.

Don has championed a universal National School Nutrition Program so every child in Canada has access to healthy meals at school. Now, with $1 billion committed over five years, we've taken a step forward - but there's more to do.

Don, Suzie and Sherry discussed how we can integrate local food providers, Indigenous food initiatives, and sustainable farm-to-school programs to create a healthier, more resilient food system.
