National Day of Action from coast to coast - join us in Ottawa at the PM's constituency office 240 Kennevale Drive, Nepean - Monday March 16 at noon! Come together across Canada and demand this government defend the Canada Health Act and the 5 principles it stands for: Accessibility: The system must provide reasonable access to insured health services on uniform terms, without financial barriers like user charges or extra-billing; Comprehensiveness: The plan must cover all "medically necessary" services provided by hospitals, medical practitioners, and dentists; Universality: 100% of insured residents in a province or territory must be entitled to public health insurance coverage; Public Administration (Non-profit): The provincial/territorial health insurance plan must be administered on a non-profit basis by a public authority accountable to the government; Portability: Residents must maintain coverage when moving within Canada or travelling within the country, with coverage provided for a waiting period (often 3 months) in a new province.
