MISSION STATEMENT
The Conversation on Health is a discussion among British Columbians on how to make British Columbia healthier, and how to improve and renew our health system while strengthening the Canada Health Act. This follows up on a commitment made in the Throne Speech to engage in a genuine conversation with British Columbians about health.

People value good health, want healthy communities, and feel strongly that our health system must be there when we, our children, and our grandchildren need it.

We need the Conversation on Health because British Columbians can – and must – find ways of making our health system sustainable for the future. We face many challenges as our population ages and new technologies and treatments are introduced.

No one knows more about your health than you do. Join us. We want to hear what is important to you, what challenges you see as most important, and what solutions you see to ensuring good health and a health system that will be there for the long haul.

We’re opening the floor to all British Columbians. We need you involved. We need a serious discussion of health so we can solve these challenges.

Please explore this website and join the conversation.
