What Will the Next 1,461 Days of the New Government Mean for Healthcare?
Canadians are concerned about our healthcare system – from growing wait times, to what universal healthcare really means for Canada. Right now, five million Canadians are living with diabetes and six million more are at risk of developing it soon. Today, one Canadian is diagnosed with this progressive, chronic disease every three minutes. By any definition, a disease affecting this proportion of our population is an epidemic.
This topic will be addressed in a panel discussion with:
- Dr. Mansoor Husain, Professor of Medicine, Physiology & Laboratory Medicine & Pathobiology, University Health Network and University of Toronto
- Dr. Jan Hux, President & CEO, Diabetes Canada
- André Picard, Health Columnist, The Globe and Mail
Boyden's Healthcare and Social Impact Partner, Nick Chambers, will be making opening remarks at the event.
