The implementation of a mixed health care system, like in France and Sweden, would be supported by a majority of Canadians according to a new IPSOS poll commissioned by the Montreal Economic Institute (MEI).

Provincial governments in Canada should implement cash-for-care systems to encourage home care, while respecting taxpayers’ ability to pay, according to this publication from the MEI.

Quebec could learn a thing or two from Denmark when it comes to helping seniors remain in their homes longer.

La province devrait bâtir un système de soins à domicile qui corresponde aux désirs de la population et qui réponde aux besoins des personnes âgées du Québec.

The shortcomings of health care systems across Canada have been thrown into stark relief by the pandemic, with surgery backlogs making headlines again of late. A lack of physicians and the absence of competition between private and public providers is undermining access to care.

For this to happen, however, the College of Physicians and the government will have to end their intimate connection that is harming Quebecers.
