We’re excited to announce the Better Medicare Health Summit: one look back and twenty leaps forward, as CDM celebrates 20 years of strengthening and preserving Canada’s publicly funded health care system.

We have seen major victories – from a 14-year legal battle against Cambie Surgeries Corporation to confronting powerful pharmaceutical and private insurance interests as we advanced Pharmacare and reinforced the Canada Health Act through the Interpretation Letter. There is much work ahead to transform our health care system, but the solutions lie in strengthening our public system, not weakening it.
At the Better Medicare Health Summit, we will explore the future of Medicare in Canada, scalable solutions to transform primary care, the growing risks posed by for-profit care and the private insurance industry, public solutions to address health care wait times, the importance of enforcing the Canada Health Act, and much more.
Full program and speakers to be announced in the coming weeks!
Get your tickets today and join us in shaping the next 20 years of Better Medicare.
