Our day to talk about the elimination of racism

When we talk about the elimination of racism, health care and mental health should be at the top of the list in order to atone for the sins of racism and the differential treatment for Indigenous peoples, and to fix it. We’re still waiting.

Health Minister Mark Holland, pictured Feb. 29, 2024, at a press conference to announce the government’s introduction of the Pharmacare Act. Provincial health ministers and premiers across the country should legislate the Joyce's Principal into law in order to end racism against Indigenous Peoples in Canada's health-care systems, writes Rose LeMay.

The Liberal Party must show up locally to win new seats
