Hi Paov. It's nice to meet you.
My name is Noal. You may not be familiar with my name because I recently joined the BC Health Coalition as your Campaigner.
In my four weeks at the BCHC, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting coalition members in-person at the BC Federation of Labour Convention and online at our Annual General Meeting. I’m inspired by the coalition membership’s commitment to strengthening public health care by promoting public solutions to our most challenging health care issues.
Your commitment to defending public health care means more equitable access to health care for all British Columbians. Your support will help us collectively fight to ensure everyone has access to health care based on need and not on their ability to pay. Will you support our work heading into the new year by making an end-of-year gift?
DONATEOver the past several weeks, I have been learning about all the great work you’ve achieved in 2022.
You came together on the #BetterCareForSeniors campaign to demand an end to for-profit long-term care and to expand home support in BC. Hearing firsthand from people who shared their stories about long-term care and home support with Minister Dix at the Accountability Assembly helped paint the picture of the challenges residents and workers face. You were instrumental in showing Minister Dix that we expect accountability from the BC government in addressing these challenges.
You also came together with other coalition members and People Who Use Drugs in a dialogue to gain a deeper understanding of the drug policy landscape in BC. This work resulted in the launch of the “Beyond Prohibition” report, which presented a summary and key recommendations to address the drug toxicity crisis.
We’re not done yet! Although the case is far from over, you also played an integral role in the BC Court of Appeal’s judgment on the Cambie case, reaffirming that health care access should be based on need and not ability to pay. That work remains crucial as our BC health care system is further degraded with the drain of workforce and capital to the private sector through the use of public funds to subsidize for-profit clinics.
This isn’t an exhaustive list, but it is impressive.
Most importantly, I am grateful for your unwavering support of public health care solutions that are efficient, evidence-based, and proven. I hope you will consider supporting the coalition to continue the next chapter of this work in 2023.
