A crucial election for health care
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 04 August 2015 20:00
- Written by editor
Dear Paov,
This weekend, Prime Minister Stephen Harper
called the federal election. Now, we have 11 weeks to make better
public health care a priority for Canada's next
government.
Will you vote for health care this election?
If enough people pledge to vote for health care, we can push the federal parties to commit to strengthening the care that is accessible to everyone.
Click here to sign the BC Health Coalition Vote Pledge
Signing the pledge means you'll get more information about where the parties stand on health care. After the parties release their platforms, we’ll send you an election guide showing the party positions on key health care issues. Then, we’ll encourage everyone who’s signed the pledge to get to the polls and vote.
Be on the right side of history.

11th Annual Southeast Wise Women Herbal Conference: A Celebration of Earth-Based Healing and Women’s Wisdom
One of my favorite gatherings of the year, the SEWHC is where I connect with some of my closest girlfriends and feel held by sisters who are walking the earth wisdom path. I love soaking up the early fall colors, crisp air, and lake swims. The ritual ceremonies are beautifully held and bring a deep resonance of purpose and connection to the world. I appreciate the integrity, the food, the vibes, the love that goes into this gathering. – Janell Kapoor, Ashevillage Director
